GBP/AUD

Earlier on last week the currency strength meter reading the the Australian dollar (AUD) was - 47 representing extreme weakness for the AUD. On the flip side Great Britain's (GBP) economy was strengthening with a score of + 25. This was a perfect opportunity to long GBP/AUD in the Forex market. Our members were able to catch this position and profit from the exchange rate movement.
