Market is reacting badly to Darling's projections for growth, as he is predicting a swift recovery in 2010/11. These overly-optimistic figures mean he is very likely vastly underestimating the public sector borrrowing requirements. This means gilts ...

What have the Romans ever done for us??? — Hmmmmm... But apart from what's listed below, what has George Soros, the investor, actually achieved? "George Soros is known for the unmatched success of his Quantum Fund. A hedge fund guru, he is ...

Hi Cmellon, It'd be very beneficial to all on this thread, and EO's thread, if you were to start contributing to this forum. Personally, I think the depth of analysis posted on here is far superior to the FXCM forum, where I post fairly regularly ...

Still in a state of disbelief on how far and fast this rally in equities has come. Been trading the long-side, but without any conviction in the past couple of weeks. Am staying away from cable until tomorrow, as I had a frustrating time with her ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

Hey Pipland et al, I've been thinking the same thoughts in relation to cable, especially when one considers sterling's role as a supposed barometer of risk appetite. With financial stocks leading this rally in equities, I would have expected cable ...

Trade what you see NOT what you expect

Well, considering that 95% of retail traders fail, it would be safe for one to assume that the majority of traders in here do not average a 10 pip a day profit over a period of 5 years. Do you think that the users of Forex Factory somehow defy this ...

Yes, impact on local communities is never good in these situations, but that hit, in the case of Dunfermline is definitely not severe enough to move a currency pair like cable, not when we've already seen far greater bad news stories from the ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

No, it doesn't register when you compare the size of the £26m annual loss it suffered to the UK government's balance sheet. The size of this loss is nothing in today's market, and the news of the failure was rightly brushed aside by currency ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

The Dunfermline Building Society are tiny and do not register on the richter scale. Is that whom you refer you? And problems in Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland are always taken into account by the market when trading in sterling denominated ...
