ForexLive Asian Session Wrap – Early Asia followed the US lead into positive territory only to fizzle in a lethargic market

Much stronger ISM data from the US gave the Asian market a start on the positive side with risk-positive trading following a firm US equity market; the Asian bourses duly followed suit and early on the market looked to trade bouyantly. The only news of the session was the Australian Trade data which came in under expectation and a minor negative impact on the AUD. Prior to this news the risk trades had started to come back on profit taking and have stayed in the lower range of the session in a lacklustre market. There was no new news nor talk from Tokyo – a change from recent days ! and no flows of significance to report…..
