You are long GBP/CAD? *shock* That's one of the worst combinations I can imagine (long GBP and short CAD). No offense...

@Pipped: I shorted from around 1115, and closed about where you did. I didn't make a mint as it was a small stake, but I'm happy, because for once I entered at a reasonably good place! I'm going to try for the same place again. No idea if it will bounce that high again (or a lot higher....with gold, almost anything seems possible).

Will GBPUSD trash bounce for a shorting opportunity? 1.5671 now without a sign of life.

Call the Cable Cartel. Hurry!!
