Opinionway out with their latest survey results 6 Feb

  • Macron 23%
  • Fillon 20%

2nd Round:

  • Macron to win with 65%
  • Le Pen 35%

As I'm rapidly learning, the French election process is less than clear with most dismissing the 1st Round as a bit of a non-event. In that case why have it ? More studying to be done. Anyone out there got the "Idiot's Guide to World Elections" I can borrow ?

Meanwhile EURUSD down testing 1.0700 where some decent size option expiries are lurking. Yen demand prevailing across the board.
