Euro just needs to clear 4150 support and we'll likely see a drop similar to price action of feb 3...
if drop comes within 16 hours.... the tp comes in around 4020/30 initially... extension below 4000 level could see 3930/50....

Chloe

Chloe, in response to you question the other day about dissent inside the ECB. There was never a record of a dissent inside the ECB as far as I recall. Webers decision to be the only one voting against bond purchases does not count because that was the smallest minority number one can get. ECB voting system is usually a collegial system. You should know that most central bankers (even from the heavily indebted Ezone nations) come from the hard-money school and have little sympathy for the fiscal irresponsibility of their elected officials. Having said, ECB voting system is known to be very collegial and most decision are usually backed by full consensus. In case where there was dissent, it is hardly made public.

If EU move down is only a short term affair watch 4148 and/or 4130 for reactions.

I do wonder to what extent a rate increase is already priced in for gbpusd and eurusd. How much higher could these pairs go on pure talk or is it all down to usd weakness.

Ganja, do you think the oil is connected with the BP capping or some other source ?

Hey Ganja, I sold the eurgbp yesterday at 8720, like watching paint dry that one. Sold eurusd today at 4208 SL at 4220 now. gbpusd covered longs and await MPC minutes tomorrow.

Chloe, I doubt US will raise rates. I doubt UK will raise but feel it is now possible whereas I have previously been convinced that King would prevail. EU, I think their talk is bluff but what do I know. The silly thing is that inflation is very much higher in all examples than the #'s published and commodity prices race up to the moon on emerging economy demands and shortages.
