Apparently caused by options expiry. Lovely.

good opp for an inverted H&S...

 

[VingTsunKuen]

Will the pound bounce against greenback?
There is 7 year low @ 1.3680.
After that Hiroshima and Nagasaki could happen to pound.
I do not see any serious support at monthly chart all the way down to 1.0520..
COT is bearish on pound and after kind of consolidation that we had on G/U i think it might sink through 1.3680....
Cheers,

Recession is 'official'... I see no reason for it to go up!

 

[VingTsunKuen]

Cable Futures (Mashup Mix)

An attempt at blending a mess of trading concepts into a cohesive whole.

(My early take on "darksiding" :cheesy

 

[trendie]

started off a nice morning, then got whipped as GBPUSD dipped, then double-backed upwards.
thankfully EURUSD and EURJPY behaved.

good post Joey25, re: entry and target for GBPUSD.

 

[Joey25]

GBP/USD Mar09

Projected supply almost in range (coming in at 1.4507 today).

More importantly, approaching the first test of the 2008 low (1.4329).

FOMC rate decision at 19:15 GMT.

 

[VingTsunKuen]

On daily EUR/USD price have yesterday entered supply(resistance) zone from year ago.
Note the wick of yesterdays candle.At this level at the time was more willing seller than buyers so price could not stay there.As result we can see kind of shooting star daily candle.
May be price could decline from this point all the way down to first demand level(support)
Will see...

P.S.
How to attach pictures like Joey25 did in his last post?Could someone please provide a link or something that might help..??
Thanx in advance!

13:00pm Update:

Pretty exciting price action on the hourly chart, with a failed probe into the 2008 lows combined with a close back within the previous candle's range.

14:30pm Update:
Finally, an inside bar fakeout + fill for me. Not exactly brimming with confidence, given it's Fed Day...

 

[trendie]

my Alpari MT4 screen has frozen at 5:30pm or so.
anyone else, or just me?
just as well I have ODL running as well.

EDIT: data returned at 5:57pm or so. however, I now have data-gap of about 27 mins.

 

[wasp]
