Apparently caused by options expiry. Lovely.

Will the pound bounce against greenback?
There is 7 year low @ 1.3680.
After that Hiroshima and Nagasaki could happen to pound.
I do not see any serious support at monthly chart all the way down to 1.0520..
COT is bearish on pound and after kind of consolidation that we had on G/U i think it might sink through 1.3680....
Cheers,
VTK
