EUR/GBP : Sold @ 0.8670

  • Last at 0.8662. Looks like breaking downside of triangle now.
  • Given large size of both short EUR and GBP positions, unable to bring myself to flip to long GBP. So still short both but weightings changed. 
  • To actually go outright short EUR/GBP and retain same book size would require me to run a humongous concentrated short EUR position. Not prepared to do that now.
  • Recall I used to have a much bigger short EUR than GBP and flipped that around. What an ill-advised move. Now back to square one with 300-odd pips of dropped P&L in between (and sterling pips too!).
