Not yet. GBP recovered a lot today. It ran against some support close to low 84c vs. the zero as well but this also reversed.

Pound is strongest after USD, Yen but EUR is weak and CHF weaker. Hedgies rotating out of a 2-week trade?

Today, things look up for the pound after in-line GDP numbers. full cent recovered even while the EUR tanks and stays there.

But I am on alert mood. There was a mini-rallye in various Ag´s especially wheat a bit like before, sugar towards its delivery. But these things are in supply aplenty and perhaps I found a viable short in wheat at 5.4 (and Corn at 3.8). Sugar had a rally from 15.4 to 17.4 but chart looks tired.

Some fx guys from Mizuho called the EUR at 1.28 by the end of this week. Pfft. For this the USD needs to take 83, but I do not see how.

Today´s gainer is perma-dog, YRCW on positive "adjusted" ebitda. Why they didn´t roll back the stock 1:100 before, is beyond me. Then, there´s a serious back-to back bounce in fannie and freddie. All told, a very healthy market.

Edit: bought some Euros, for sports.

I got a sell signal conf in gold. I´d like to buy it back at 1050 or so. Yesterday, in the bath I was reading "the big short" and wondered how the investment public has been screwed and will be fleeced this time.
Found Gold! (Everyone and their family has already purchased a sizeable amount of gold. What happens next?)

Finally after they completed painting the fractal, the pound sees really serious selling. Absent a 1.535+ move, or even better, it will complete this round lower. Different level but a sell signal nonetheless. The zero..., only item to prevent the DX from being green today.
