Martin, i try to focus on the G10 currencies and economies. Fundamentally, these currencies should continue to rally vs EUR if the current improvement in sentiment continues. Technically, EURHUF and EURPLN both look bearish.

alldy, govt bond funds may not be good. but if you're dealing with funds for high quality corporate bonds, then sure, why not. corporates over governments. get metals funds.

Forum sounds great - but you know we all want your views :) - I'm sure you're do for a break, though.

Wow, NZD/JPY and GBP/JPY already dropping like you said! thanks for all

Rob, great question. this call is based on my forward thinking that today's stocsk rally will be curtailed by end of session, which will drive my negative bias on GBPUSD (stop 1.4830) and GBPJPY (stop 145.20). the 2 hour techs looked awful on S&P500 and so do on cable. See my twitter updates.

Will have a forum section in next few days so website visitors can ask each other questions and exchange views.

Hey Ashraf,

In your latest IMT, you said GBP/USD going down - why so with risk appetite and equities still in full gear, along with Asian stocks most likely rising after US? I would suspect like any other risk currency that it goes up. I know it's ready for a pullback considering the UK fundamentals, but I would think that wouldn't occur until sell-off in equities next week/month -
Also, your thoughts on gold would be most appreciated as well.
Thanks
