Welcome, Traders!
Today is Tuesday the 15th of August or Wednesday the 16th of August, depending on where you are.
Here are some things to look out for in the session.
Sentiment:
The dollar fluctuated between gains and losses as US retail sales data came in better than expected, only to eke out a gain late in the New York session. The yen has made little progress and is on the verge of ending its longest daily losing streak since May, while the offshore yuan has prolonged losses throughout the New York session.
