Individual currency strengths (ICS Balance) were themselves non-directional today, meaning once paired, trend momentum was going to be limited. However we were fully aware of this before the UK open. Good points were still available at our usual times in all currency pairs, despite continued low volumes.

Early trades in the Dom long Dax were very good, however and despite positive German economic data, the price fell away leading up to the US open.

Monday saw a reduced maximum potential of 530 points from specific Max Day Trading time/trend entries within our five instruments from the UK morning session alone, with a minimum target of just 30.

JUST A TEN PERCENT target of this figure would have yielded 53 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.
