bluecheap, the losses in Asia weren't pronounced enough for CAD to drop. place stops at 87.70-80. Bank of Canada decision at 13:00 gmt and PMI at 14:00 will be key.

hi Ashraf, CAD/JPY has not hit our target of 85.80 and is now trading at 87.30.
Do you still have the same views here? Thanks.

blucheap, goo dquestion. i say BOTH are good shorts. but with AUDCAD losing, i see MORE SCOPE for CADJPY to lose as oil is about to break below that 64 treld line support.

the next 12 hours should produce some great moves

Pipples, not good idea to short same currency against different currencies especially with sterling being expensive (draw more margin). Consider selling CADJPY for 85.80 and 85.20. GBPJPY prelim support at 1530.50, 152.70. GBPUSD seen at 1.6130.

Spec, all currencies are down vs USD but GBP is accelerating losses due to news of RESHUFFLE in the Govt including a potential resgination of Darling. EURGBP eeys 0.8720.
