So if Euro is weak against Dollar and Pound is strong against Dollar, then Pound MUST be strong against Euro.
Remember the Football analogy from the second post on the thread ?

The left chart is GBPUSD, the right is EURUSD and the middle is EURGBP.

A nice little move and well worth remembering. When not looks quite right on our main stage there is always something lurking in the shadows for us.

If there's any questions about this topic then please do ask.
Thanks FX.

I was just going to ask you about the cross rates when you get some divergence from the usual correlation. GBPJPY not surprisingly offering some pips today.
