Economic data risk coming up in this session 28 Aug

A quiet one as Monday normally is.

As always I wish you good trading, for those of you who are, and I'll be back within the next couple of hours with another couple of posts.

European desks may well take the opportunity to make the most of London being closed. That might mean a snooze fest or thin liquidity conditions providing a whip saw or two.

After a pull back in Asia from EURUSD and GBPUSD gains and a bit of crablike crawling since let's see which of those two conditions might prevail.

GBPUSD currently 1.2893 from 1.2944 highs. EURUSD 1.1932 from 1.1962 highs with EURGBP 0.9253 currently trading tightly too after Friday's fun and games and the early Asian after-party.

USDJPY 109.08 finding decent support at 109.00 again so far.

London centre closed but robots don't go on holiday so they might still have something to say should anything break.
