Ahead of the day’s Crude Oil Stockpile report by the American Petroleum Institute. Oil is seen marking-time in familiar ranges with possibility of extending more gains to $65bbl.

Meanwhile, Brexit saga weighs on investors sentiment at the same time driving traders, to stake their position for or against the GBP and UK 100 shares. Today PM. May is set to meet with Leaders of France and Germany for support to extend Brexit

The truth is this kind of volatility trigger has been used by many market participants to put their account in a positive ROI. While those caught with emotions saw their capital slipping through their fingers as they traded with a cognitive bias mind-set.

Although not entirely unfounded, adherence to these practices could be extremely “dangerous” in such capricious markets where flexibility and liquidity is warranted.
