I ran first choice, who last weekend gave me 1.59. Todays rate 1.52 , they will push it to 1.57 if i spend over £500. She didnt even know the banking rate and was shocked to see the high street rates available.0 -

Makes good reading -
The recent break to 2009 highs beyond 1.6745 keeps the constructive and bullish trend intact with a medium-term higher lower now confirmed by 1.5980. A fresh upside extension is now underway with the market projecting a move back towards the 1.7500 area before and sign of a top. Setbacks should now be supported ahead of 1.6700, with only a break below to compromise the structure and outlook.
