You are spot on Matt. Really no way the mkts should of sold off yesterday on that agreement. It shows the mkt is sick. So with the disappointment of the Fed and that, the market is telegraphing that it wants to go lower.
Yes the 2:1 thing is tough to stick too, but thats what my system suggests. I think we'll move down as the equity mkt and sterling look toppy. I hate these 300 pip down one day, 300pip up the next markets.
Bernanke (To goldman): buy out the money december puts on thursday night with 1480 expiry
Goldman: ok done.
Bernnanke: (2 hours later): buy dec 1530 calls. Flat the 1480s.
Goldman: Done.
Seems plausible.
Out at 228. -86 pips. Rather disconcerting the £/$ jumped 100+pips in the last 15 minutes to knock me out. Massive quick news, not sure what caused that.
