Yes I think you are right. They are keeping nimble to be able to adapt to what can be unpredictable changes in regulation.

1 trade today There had been a break up out of consolidation, then a small retracement and re-test of the high, so I went in as upward pressure was building. SL/TP 30 pips, then moved my SL to entry on the break up past resistance. A nice quick move ...
