Like flicking a light switch!

Markets switched to risk-on last session despite the rise in US Covid cases. The back and forth between risk-on and risk-off is akin to flicking a light switch making trend trading very challenging at the moment. You need to choose your battles (read: trades) wisely at the moment as the recent GBP/USD Descending Wedge trade reveals.
