Cable takes another shot through support at 1.6209. What will be the Cable Cartel's response? They have spent a lot of bullets today defending the "new leader of the free world" gbp/usd. Their last response waqs a 15 pip goosing north of cable into low 1.6220.

Every day is the same trading pattern on cable. Asia session neutral to bearish. European seesion a four-hour steady grind higher. Pre-U.S. session starts the selloff. Sort-term support gets broken in U.S. session.

Cable Cartel then reloads for the next day's "running of the bulls" cable price action, suckering in more clueless longs.

Chloe-u/c chart looking sickly at the moment. FX Trading out of whack in thin markets today. The Cable Cartel is vehemietly defending the 1.6209 level, prepared to lop of 7 pips at a time on the eur/gbp pair if required to keep gbp/usd above support and the darlings of the free world. Slew of data this week for cable all set up for upside "surprises". The question remaining is, how much has been baked into cable already as the Cable Cartel's manipulation of eur/gbp started early last week WELL before these data points were set to be released.
The Cartel is doing what it set out to do-frontrun gbp/usd by demolishing eur/gbp. The mysterious out-of-the-blue drop in eur/gdp from0.9020 to 0.8780 in less than six trading days wreaks of manipulative front-running.

The comical part of the move is now most analysts are POUNDING the table for even higher levels of cable moving forward. Nogt one of them has said that 100% of the cable move can be attributed to the move in eur/gbp.

Cabe Cartel desperately trying to keep gbp/usd over 1.6300.

Gold getting spanked. Aussie to follow.

Folks, very, very thin trading conditions allowing for exaggerated moves

@Xaron I _hope_ you are wrong. I _fear_ you may be right :-)

My long EUR/GBP is not looking so clever at the moment...I think it could continue on down to 0.8720-0.8750 territory, maybe 0.8700. Surely not lower, in the short to medium term? hm....

rkkashmir, I'm not so sure about that. Everyone seems to hate the GBP and is short there. That could become a nice short squeeze in the GBP the next weeks... I see targets of 1.67 and above.
