Our GBP pairs were both Dom long and short at the beginning of the UK open and good points were available in both directions. Again we had a poor ICS Balance within the Dom long EUR/AUD with the AUD Index overpowering the EUR to give us a net short come the end of the morning session. Holiday volumes continue to keep a lid on overall points.
The Dax was the annoying instrument of the day, with an obvious leak of negative German economic data well before the announcement. This ended net short but there were still some decent trades available before and after the news had worn off.
Monday saw a quiet start to the week with a maximum potential of 580 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 58 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

Individual currency strengths within pairs (ICS Balances) had more diversion today, resulting in much better momentum, volatility and point gains. However there was a strange strengthening of the JPY index throughout the morning, eliminating literally all movements in our Dom long GBP/JPY.
The Dom short German Dax also gave some very strong returns at our usual times.
Thursday saw a very healthy maximum potential of 900 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 90 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

Volumes and volatility continue to restrict overall point gains, as individual currencies within pairs remain non-directional. The weakness of the AUD gave some decent momentum to our Dom long GBP/AUD & EUR/AUD, with good points at our usual times.
The Dom long German Dax was extra manic today as it conflicted with the NAS100 & US Dow.
Wednesday saw a reduced maximum potential of 550 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 55 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

The Domino Effect trading strategy really shone through today. Our GBP pairs were trending in opposite directions with the GBP/JPY & GBP/USD short and the GBP/AUD long. Positive UK economic data gave a push in the AUD pair but even this could not stop the JPY & USD pairings from dropping, both being considerably net short come the end of the UK morning session.
The Dom long EUR/AUD did very well too with some excellent points and our usual manic Dax gave good points at our usual times.
Tuesday saw another very decent maximum potential of 730 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 73 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

Individual currency strengths gave a little more momentum within pairs today but we are still looking at low volumes and volatility. The German Dax also gave some good points at our usual times, though the expected manic movements made gains a little tricky.
The beginning of the week saw a decent maximum potential of 680 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 68 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.

Individual currency indexes (ICS Balances) were quite poor today, with all currencies being on the strong side at the UK open. We had to place more reliance on our Dom technical analysis conclusions which ended up good but on extremely low volumes and volatility. Where we see trades of just 5 points, we would usually see 15 to 20 points in the same time and movement. Hopefully things will get back to normal come mid-September when all the major market movers will be back from their holidays.
Thursday saw a reduced maximum potential of 370 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 37 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.
