Just spoke to one of our Forex Traders .
I asked him his feelings about where Cable is going.
He told me that he is off on holiday at the end of the week to the US, and even he is hanging on before exchanging his GBP up, as he feels the rate will only get better as the week goes on......
there you have it
straight from the horses mouth !!
