I have had a keen interest in this pair for a long time. There are many factors that affect the rate of this Dollar/Lira. There is political risk to the pair at this time, but one can cautiously begin scaling into a short position. I could easily be wrong but I see that this pair hitting 2.000 by August. Based on election outcomes in Turkey we can see 1.85 by Christmas. I only wanted to start a conversation here as a hunt for interactive trading of the pair didn't turn up anything current.
As of today, 041914, we are taking a look at a market starting price up around 2.15, if USDTRY is going to develop into the carry I see it getting, the 2.15 level may prove to be a wonderful level to short off of. We'll see. More to come later.
************* Edit/Plug for an awesome new podcast thats only getting on it's feet with a Veteran Saint Paul Minnesota broadcaster T.D Mishcke.
