uk numbers seem to get gloomier and gloomier these days, with only exceptions like last christmas sales surprising.
i would only expect a bounce based on technical oversold conditions or if oil starts to rise again.
the thing that's stopping me from taking a position with conviction is that usd/jpy and eur gbp /usd all seem to want to go down, however the usd/jpy is being forced up due to eur gbp weakness. short the eur/jpy gbp/jpy? i'd have to wait for some more momentum before taking a solid position. meantime, i'm just scalping the gbp/usd.
gbp/usd currently at 1.7355
