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.
