the euro gap

[N Rothschild]

Good demand and a 4 handle on the yields. Lacklustre response though, guess evveryone took it for granted would go well?

do you infact live in leith?

 

[MrGecko]

options are keeping it stuck here i think (re: EURUSD)

 

[Sunshine On Leith]

the only reason i said it could be dangerous to play the gap is that a gap like that on the euro is uncharted territory..why play something which has no precedence for success

I wouldnt play any gap in isolation, but if it couples with my bigger picture view I love them.

Will be interesting to see how this pans out. I reckon the reaction to todays positive auction is telling, if it wont rally on that then it isint going to before the gap is closed. Famous last words..........

Jesus its a small world. My first flat was just round the corner from you on Easter Road.

Youre moving up in the world to Murrayfield. Too many jambos up there for my liking though


I see the Italians are kicking back on the Greek loan package now, saying they would need to pass a new law to autorise any payment to Greece. So thats the Germans and the Italians making negative noises about contributing, Spain and Portugal are skint................implementation could get rather messy if Grece goes ahead and asks for assistance. House of cards.

 

[MrGecko]

Don't the irish have to vote on it in parliament too..?

Yep, and cant imagine the Irish voters being delighted about writing a cheque after all theyve been through trying to get their own house in order.

He has replied, but the way you could have found it would be to click on the person's name to view their profile, click on statistics, then click on "find threads started by".

if you fancy a laugh on euro trading

..a month ago Goldman told its clients to go long the EURUSD with a 1.35 stop. The stop was triggered within a week. Then the firm flipflopped and followed up with a diametrically opposite call. That call was also stopped within a few days. Goldman learned its lesson. But not Citi: the nationalized firm, whose stock, together with that of bankrupt Ambac, has just issued a long EURUSD call at 1.359. The call by technical analyst Aron Gera, proposes a stop at 1.349. In other words it is now Citi's turn to offload its EUR book...
