The markets and especially stocks are now suffering from very high volatility, as the crisis in eastern Europe deepens. Investors and traders are bailing out, causing some eye watering but manic points – if you got it right!
The Dom short German Dax gave some excellent points but trade entries were far from precise.
All our currencies were Dom short and again, the huge sell-offs caused dome very good but manic points at our usual times.
Because of this high volume/volatility situation, I have reduced the percentage of our overall points from 20% to 10%. This shall remain until volumes and volatility reduce to nearer their normal levels.
Thursday saw another high but manic maximum potential of 1,610 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TEN PERCENT target would have yielded 161 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

The markets continue to react to the eastern Europe crisis, though things seem to be settling as stocks (a big indicator) were all gaining ground today. This reflected in the Dom long Dax, despite negative German economic data.
Our currency pairs did well too on far from ideal ICS Balances, with decent points at our usual times.
Wednesday saw another reasonable maximum potential of 770 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TWENTY PERCENT target would have yielded 154 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

The eastern European crisis continues to disrupt the markets, as risk is transferred in and out of stocks and currencies at each new headline. This has made prices spike up and down with no real trend momentum anywhere.
The Dax started the day as Dom short with some high volatility trades leading up to positive German economic data. The price then lifted but was probably more so on ‘less severe’ news of the Russian/Ukrainian situation.
Overall, trading was challenging today but we still had some decent points at our usual times.
Tuesday saw another very reasonable maximum potential of 955 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TWENTY PERCENT target would have yielded 191 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

We were fully aware from before the UK morning session got underway that trend momentum within our currency pairs was going to be limited, as similar strength currencies battled it out within our pairs (ICS Balance). Relying more on our technical Dom conclusions, all pairs still gave some decent points at our usual times.
The Dom short Dax quickly brushed off positive German economic data, with the price falling heavily throughout the morning.
Monday saw a very reasonable maximum potential of 805 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TWENTY PERCENT target would have yielded 161 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

The Russian/Ukrainian crisis continues to disrupt the markets, with mixed information filtering through from several sources. During the Asia session, it was reported that Russian troops were not in fact retreating from the Ukrainian boarder. This saw a general ‘risk off’ with stocks and a ‘risk on’ in currencies as market movers transferred trades from one sector to another.
Later in the UK morning session, these rumours were dispelled and stocks began to rise again. Overall we still had some good points at our usual times from all our instruments.
Thursday saw another reasonable maximum potential of 770 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TWENTY PERCENT target would have yielded 154 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

The markets became jittery today as several reports of Russian troops reassembling close to the Ukrainian boarder. This kept volumes down and saw a selloff of stocks worldwide.
Currency pairs went into consolidation mode, with poor ICS Balances and little momentum anywhere. Thankfully our technical Dom trend predictions gave some decent trades at our usual times.
Wednesday saw another reasonable maximum potential of 690 from specific Max Day Trading time/level entries within our four instruments from the UK morning session alone.
JUST A TWENTY PERCENT target would have yielded 138 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.
