Brexit odds are rising: GBP/USD is crashing, things are looking cruel as more votes for leave are gaining ground.

The initial big fall came from Sunderland after a push from Newcastle. Since then, the pound found some stability but fresh results push things lower.

The low so far has been under 1.40: 1.3998 to be precise.

  2. Wide stops: Bounces are crazy are tou don’t want to lose out on an odd report from a small area.
  3. Wait for a bounce: the 1.45 handle was an area the pair settled for some time.
