Pound and traders: someone is clearly overexcited!
The pound/dollar lost a figure in a matter of minutes, collapsing from $1.5300 to $1.5200 and peaking around $1.5180.
As there are no news and rumors connected with this movement, players assume that someone's "clumsy fingers" might be to blame (afterwards accusations were even narrowed down to a trading error of some Dutch investor). Others point to the execution of a large order to buy Euro/sterling by a large American investor (cross jumped from stg0.8425 to stg0.8478).
The market situation is now normalizing and the GBP is making a pullback from the extreme levels.

That's some bullshit.
I got knocked out by a stop on EURGBP because of this bullshit.
