Calling all brits

Im looking for a web based news source that is based in Great Brittan. I currently use bloomberg but having a brittish accent doesnt make it brittish news. Any recomendations?

I was completly off guard yesterday with the BOE minutes. 04:15 yesterday Im long on the cable sitting +20 pips so I move stop to +5 pips intending to ride the trade. I go off looking for breakfast come back an hour later to see a missed opportunity. I hope somebody made some money on that!!

Regards

psy

I listen to bloomberg internet radio. Granted I tuned in around 02:30 est. There is a distinct possibility I missed it. Even so if they reported it early in the am gmt that puts it at 7-8 pm est. Why the big delay for the pop off at 04:30 est?
Thats an hour a half into the trading day in London.

a technical perspective...the sharp spike lends itself to a lot of people waiting for one thing to happen at a very specific expected time.

Does this gest that the big players were armed with the info simply waiting for the highest (double top) cable price before opening the shorts?

I do Habib!!!!

That could have made me serious cash yesterday!!!! Instead of just the 5 pips I walked away with.

I am discovering more more that if you want to trade the cable you need to do so a Brittish perspective.

But hey you could always go trade the USD/YUAN.
LOL
I hear its been in range for a while

No What I meant was Bl does not move fx markets where as the Chancellor of the Exchequor has a huge influence.
I think the Royals are a source of pride ( tourist revenue) for Britain tend to like them.
