john luke Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Gents, this thread, which is located in the main part of the forum, was created and intended to show the relative values if the Thai Baht and the U.K. Pound. Occasionally it may wander into related areas, which are political in some ways and this enhances interest and is acceptable. Could members, however, please utilise the Political Section, particularly the Brexit thread or the U.K. General Election thread when this is most appropriate? Thanks. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay Boss, though my post was relevant, that's why the £ just fell. But point taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris made it clear and is enshrining in law no extension to transition period end of 2020. Frankly we'll leave no deal and Sterling has dropped sharply. Just had quick look prior to post interbank is 39.64 so am guessing yellow TTs are 39.48 give or take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toy Boy Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 So another year of uncertainty and a wildly fluctuating but ever-downwards exchange rate awaits us? Bollox! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope in 2020 the Thais will put downward pressure on the Baht (somehow) against the Greenback hopefully out to at least 32. That would push Sterling to over 42 again without Sterling/Dollar even moving from current levels Heres hoping lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toy Boy Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 So much for the Fx markets factoring in all available information. Nothing that Boris has done since the election that would affect the pound has been unexpected as far as I can see. Did the traders think he would have a sudden change of heart when he got re-elected and call a second referendum, or cuddle up to Jo Swinson and cancel Brexit altogether? I think the traders need to lay off the festive eggnog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the traders need to lay off the festive eggnog! That was my thought too. However, we must not overlook that there are people in the market who are there only to make money (i.e. not because they have need of the currency), so will likely manipulate the price in whatever way achieves that. Remember Soros and Black Wednesday? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR007 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Using that pound cost averaging that I always advocate via Transferwise my 4 transfers netted a rate of 40.27. Taking off the fees element the real rate ended up at 40.03 so half decent compared to the 36/37's we saw couple months ago 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
