Short British Pound
Commercials have been actively distributing sterling over the past month and a half, even as large and small speculators persist in taking long positions. However, today witnessed a startling turn of events as the Bank of England caught the market off guard by implementing a substantial 50 basis point rate hike. In the event that the price concludes the day on a downward trajectory, I will initiate a short position on the British Pound. This occurrence exemplifies a phenomenon known as 'news failure,' wherein bullish news unexpectedly yields bearish price action. Consequently, if today indeed marks the peak of the market, I intend to set my stop loss order at the day's high.
