Thanks to those of you who joined us today. I should reiterate that the Monday Market Update is just that. A big picture overview of the markets, with a few ‘charts of interest’ thrown in. There are no trade recommendations, this is not a signal service – just what I am looking at and interested in.
Today we looked at; FX STAM, UBS Group ($UBS), Amazon.com ($AMZN), Alphabet Inc ($GOOG), Strategy ($MSTR), and Palantir Technologies ($PLTR).

The Monday Market Update returns for 2026. We always take a look at the strength & weakness within FX, Indices & Commodities markets. We take a look at a few ‘Charts of Interest’, and then finish up with a look at the live markets. It’s me sharing what I’m looking at which may help you with your own analysis.
If you’re unable to join the live call then the recording is posted here on the blog, and snippets will be added to the YouTube Channel over the following days.
If there’s a topic, or an instrument you’d like to see me cover then you can ping me before hand at paul@FXTraderPaul.com
After running the UK intraday sessions throughout 2025, one thing has become very clear:
Intraday trading works — but it’s demanding. It requires screen time, constant decision-making, and high mental energy.
For many traders, that’s fine in short bursts. But it’s not always the most sustainable model over months and years.
That’s why, for Q1 2026, I’m opening USD Edge. JOIN HERE
USD Edge is a 10-week FX swing trading group mentorship designed to help traders step back from intraday intensity and build a calm, repeatable process around USD-driven FX markets.
This isn’t about doing more trades. It’s about making better decisions, less often.
Swing trading allows you to:
Work from 4-hour charts, not constant price noise
Hold trades for days, not minutes
Reduce emotional overtrading
Trade alongside work, family, and real life
Build a process that doesn’t depend on being glued to screens
Why do this now?
Because Q1 is where trading habits for the year are formed.
If you don’t deliberately change how you trade early in the year, you usually end up repeating the same patterns — just in different market conditions.
USD Edge is designed to help you reset your approach:
Clear rules
Defined risk
Fewer, higher-quality setups
A structure you can repeat week after week
Why do this in a small group?
Because progress happens faster when:
Your trades are reviewed, not ignored
Your thinking is challenged, not reinforced
You’re guided by an experienced trader who has seen multiple market cycles play out
You’re accountable to a process, not just yourself
This is not a signals room. Signals are used only as guided trade examples, to explain logic, risk, and management — not as something to blindly follow.
Programme snapshot:
Runs: Mid-January → End of March (10 weeks)
2 structured group sessions per week
4 individual 1-to-1 coaching sessions
USD-focused FX markets (GBP & EUR secondary)
4-hour timeframe
Trading Monday to Thursday only
Delivered over Zoom, and via Teachable, just like previous sessions.
Investment:
Standard price: £697
Founding Cohort: £497 for the first 3 traders only
USD Edge is for traders who want clarity, discipline, and sustainability — not constant activity.
If intraday trading helped you build skills, USD Edge shows you how to build something you can maintain.
