GBP news

Hi,
today were released some nes on GBP. The news importance was somewhere in the middle range of the importance.
Manu. prod and Inust. prod (MoM and YoY). Both the indicators were over the range, the market analysts expected. The real impact was, that the GBP strengthen on GBP/USD paid and other major pairs. I expect, that this trend will continue at leas today. My estimation is, that GBP/USD will fall down today or tomorrow to the level 1.3330.

Today

Hi,
today I am still holding the 2 positions on TRY - EUR/TRY and USD/TRY. It seems to me, that the support level around 3.755 and 4.024 will be finally broken. If this level is broken, the way down is open and the trend will continue for same days.
I opened some positions on JPY today too. Both of them were profitable and I believe, that JPY will continue in strengthening.

Friday

Hi,
I had open 3 positions on Friday. @ of them were EUR/TRY and USD/TRY. The third one was GBP/JPY. I had to tighten the stop loss, because I wanted to avoid the margin call. If I did not have to close the GBP/JPY, the position would have finished at least with 0 USD profit. This is pitty, but the situation required this action and I am glad, that I did not get the margin call on all the positions including the 2 positions on EUR/TRY and USD/TRY.

Today

Hi,
I have been holding 2 positions on EUR/TRY and USD/TRY for nearly 3 days and both of them are short. 3 days ago I open them because I believed, that TRY will strenghten. The reason is, that the mood in the markets is positive and the assets with higher risk ratio will strengthen.
Initially I was in red numbers, but today I am partialy back in green numbers. I hope, that this trend will continue.

Today

Hi,
today was calm day. There were no significant moved despite the release of important macros from US. Inflation report was in the major market consensus. 2.2 was expected by the analysts and the actual results exactly matched the expectation. This was the major reason, why there were no significant moves by my opinion.

Hi,
I had a swing day today. I opened USD/TRY and EUR/TRY short positions. In the begining (in the morning) they went my direction for a short period of time. Then, they turned up, both of the pairs. In the meantime I open long on GBP/JPY - this trade closed with profit of cca 100 pips shortly after the lunch. TRY pairs are mixed now, but I still believe, that they will direct down.

Next week

Hi,
next week seems to me, that the markets will be quite boring till wednesday, but may be I am wrong. The reason is, that there are no important macro news planned to be announced till wednesday. There will be anounced inflation in US on wednesday and ECB interest rate decission on Thursday. In addition there will come a news from China on Friday and I think, that it will be the most important news of the week.
