    Still good movement, but looks like its coming to a stop soon as we near the BOE news.

    I'm sort of new to these forums, I don't know if it is acceptable to discuss our own opinions / trades. So I'll have a go anyway!

    "down to 1.98 by 6pm gmt" - me, earlier. Time is 7pm gmt, that retrace hit 1.982 and I closed for seventy pips profit :D

    Awaiting: Tomorrow

    edit: edward, check timestamps - I'd hate to have gone short at 5:42 too!

    Fair enough. Everything is timing related for both entries and exits.

  6. US interest rates implied by the market will be heading higher.

    The easiest thing to do in this pair is to buy it, since it tested 1.99 and retraced close to 100 pips.

    The hardest thing to do is to sell it. Since the current trend is down. If you look at the previous consolidation zone, it did something similar, it broke the stops on the upside then proceeded to head down and consolidate before making a final definitive push up.

    So another few hundred pips to the downside is possible. Since the focus will shift to the Federal Reserve.

    My current res and sup levels:

    R3 = 1.9863
    R2 = 1.9828
    R1 = 1.9806
    S1 = 1.9764
    S2 = 1.9742
    S3 = 1.9707

    What do you guys think? Comments much appreciated :)

    Btw, I'm currently long GBP/USD and hope that it'll hit 1.9863 soon, will have to watch for BOE news before seeing if it will break 2.0!

    You think the BOE will bring that big of a rise?
