hi, just wondering where the gu will be on brexit day, deal, no deal, good or bad etc. so i,m inviting you all to predict where it will be on the brexit day to the nearest 5 (ie 1.25/1.20 ) and the reason why you think it will be at that level. there is a theory that the if enough participate the most popular result is often right. but its really just for fun and will be interesting to see what we all think.my feelng is, it will be low 1.10/ 1.05 because it will make our exports cheap and possibly a work around for any trade tariffs. over to you.

I assume as we have now passed through the 1.2700 threshold, you do not anticipate it returning to 1.2750 imminently for this trade.

Price keep rejected from the high 1.2730-50 and also rejected from low 1.2650-60,,, so it is a good chance for intraday traders to sell from  high and but from low until support or resistance breaks...GBP  found a Strong Support at 1.2650 breaking of it means down to 1.25...
