It's a sensible management decision rather than a dirty spekulation though ...

FTFY

then I will hang onto the rest just so I can tell women in bars I earn a living playing the currency markets rather than admit I am a computer programmer, todays news means I won't be a complete liar, also, which is nice.

Got my 75p exchange rate so transferred a chunk of Euros into Sterling.

Holding back the rest until it hits 90p (a man's gotta dream).

I earn in Euros, took a hammering last year with all the Greek stuff. Nice to get a bit of a retrace but not sure it'll last as Europe is really in a bad shape at the moment

I have been sitting on a big pile of Euros after a contract in 2015. I changed a load at 72.5p, am thinking my next move will be at 75p then I will hang onto the rest just so I can tell women in bars I earn a living playing the currency markets rather than admit I am a computer programmer.

Im holding funds but not buying more for now. However catastrophic articles make me think it will be over soon

Likewise, but I don't think this pullback is close to being over yet. Ordinarily, I'd be a dirty spekulant under these conditions. Now, any bounces are increasingly weak and ineffectual. I anticipate a sustained leg down and possibly a few grey swans if oil persists lower.

Quite a sell off today ... resisting itchy trigger finger to buy

Still very weak. Down a few percent on Lloyds so far.
Glen interesting, bucked the trend with a huge spike yesterday, back down today. No reason, so probably some huge shorts closing and reopened today.
