Pound pushing ever higher versus the Euro....
HANG ON TO YOUR HATS AS THE DOWNSIDE RISK JUMPS DRAMATICALLY
October has seen an absolutely meteoric rise for Sterling against the Euro.
Closing in on almost a 2.5% gain in a handful of weeks.
Bolstered by better than expected economic numbers in the UK and growing unrest in Europe.
The important note is how to protect yourself from potential downside risk.
With the UK budget looming, there's plenty of catalysts on the horizon for a possible retracement back to previous rates.
What are the options?
This is exactly the time to be speaking to your dedicated account manager here at Regency FX.
Based on your own unique circumstances your account manager can potentially offer solutions to enable you to "lock in" a rate of exchange.
Now could well be the time to take action.
Outside of this there's plenty of news at the end of the week that could stir markets.
Global services and manufacturing data gets released throughout the day on Friday.
Historically this has sometimes made exchange rates shift dramatically.
Next week is equally lively with US, Canadian and Eurozone interest rate decisions being reported.
Hang on to your hats.
