Spot Forex: Latest Headlines


Posted 7/29/2010 8:08:00 AM

[GBP/USD] is a relative laggard in Europe even though that fibo at 1.5635/40 has been breached to a new five month best of 1.5656. A large Asian account has been a seller above 1.5650, we are told. UK data though showing signs of resilience is showing occasional weakness and today there was more bad housing data in the form of the Jul Nationwide HPI and latest mortgage approvals data. Conversely, EU data is going from strength to strength, the better economic numbers continuing to take many by surprise. Eur/Gbp, as a result, has been squeezed after many specs had been positioned for the sub-0.8300/20 break. Expect that cross to continue to outperform, but Cable will continue to be driven by the movement of the broader Dollar. Expect offers to emerge 1.5680/00
