Tuesday 10 March 2010

Cable broke through the 1.50 and weekly 50fib level so Sterling seems set for lower and I won't be a buyer after all. Nothing does head fakes like cable though.
EURGBP worried me because of the gap between the tail of the weekly shooting star and the trendline.  A suckers gap is what it will be if we get above 0.9146 and it goes to touch the trendline.
Other currencies are mixed with stronger dollar and yen the theme, the continentals the weakest and the commodity currencies the strongest for now ... ;)
I am selling GBPAUD (weakest vs strongest) on a break of the lows.

Crude
Trendline break means if 80 goes then 78 is next target. 
Gold and silver have just broken similar trendlines which give me confidence holding short for now.
