Alex Chernomordin — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 05:50:47 -0400

Reviewing the Sterling Yen chart below, we examined a Fibonacci retracement utilizing the highs and lows of the prior week on a 15 minute chart. The pair is currently trading between the 50 and 200 day moving averages, as it straddles the 23.6% retracement level. Yen weakness has prevented the pair from selling off as much as other Sterling crosses this session. It will be interesting to see if the pair can retrace last weeks levels, with the negative sentiment in regards to UK economic woes spreading in the market place.
