A quiet day with lower volumes and conflicting ICS Balances. Overall trend directions were good but the Dom long Dax suffered from early negative Chinese data that dragged most indices lower come the start of the UK morning session. Despite all this, decent points were still available at our usual times.

Monday saw a reduced maximum potential of 520 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 52 net points, with many additional opportunities in the US morning (UK afternoon) and US afternoon (UK evening) sessions.
