    OK, the rate's gonna go up :D

    (Well it'll go up sometime I'm sure, when and by how much?....... your guess is as good as mine :rotfl: )
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    Well we pulled back from oblivion yesterday from 1.52 upto 1.53 today where unfortunately lots cashed in more sterling to buy dollars which puts us back on a steady course down.

    We could rise from here in theory, in the next few days 1.52 to 1.545 is feasible

    1.57 to 1.52 in 8 days. Pretty poor.

    1.53 seems to have become significant resistance. Once again we are balanced upon the precipice at 1.5189

    :j 35 days 'til my next holiday :D

    Currently it's too depressing to follow the rate too closely - I'm going to close my eyes and just hope for the best for the next few weeks - nothing else I can do. :(
