In Thread: GBP
Anyone else see a massive spike down in cable around 16:40 GMT?
I wasn't in cable at the time.

There was a much smaller, but roughly corresponding jump up in EUR/GBP at a similar time.

I'm not seeing long gold, to be honest; not particularly, anyway, other than a slow drift maybe.
OTOH, I rarely make money betting against Catnip, so he's probably right :-)

Trade and money-management is all.
Something I've learned the hard way.
Hope I've learned, anyway.

Seems to have retreated from 1.27 area for the weekend.
May be amassing strength for another attack next week.

I'll take Paul and Spain because he has a 100% success record.

I think I'll try him out for trading decisions, before they fry him.
He couldn't do worse than I am doing.

What kind(s) of thing(s) can be the trigger(s) to turn EUR/USD back in that direction, such that it could hit 1.17 by late Q3 or early Q10?

@Sub: See Ashraf's comment of July 6, 2010 15:41 GMT.

I would repeat my question: Is there any specific reason for this timing? (which was early Q4).

No one going to comment on Holland then, or was it just too obvious?

@Qiman: Thanks for the heads-up on copper.

Unlike gold (which has mystique, and jewellery value, but not much else, unless perhaps you are a high-class dentist :-) ) copper is a real-world element with some excellent properties which will probably always be useful.


I can remember (and have quoted this before), before digital cameras, when everyone still used film, people in the photographic industry worrying about potential shortages of silver (used in film).
Well, nobody at that point, foresaw the digital revolution. I don't know if it directly contributed to any drop in the price of silver (I wasn't following the markets in those days), but it must have made a difference.

Possibly the same could happen with copper, but I doubt it somehow.
