23:31 UTC

Sideways, flat EMAs · RSI 50 · price 1.33938

Range 1.3377–1.3403 since London open, top capped four times.

Hot UK CPI spiked price to a 1.3364 cpi low at 06:00 UTC, then London lifted it into a 1.3377–1.3403 range. The 1.3400 area rejected four times (day high 1.3403), and both NY dips (ny low 1.3377) were bought back as USD stayed soft. Early Asia is holding 1.3394 after retracing most of the late-NY selloff, just under the 1.3397 rebound high, with the rollover low at 1.3383 below.

Support: 1.3383, 1.3377, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.3403

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3403 day high breaks the range top; the market has not closed a day above 1.3400 since Sep 15
  • Failure to hold the 1.3383 rollover low exposes the 1.3377 ny low and the range floor
  • Asia session is thin with ATR near 4 pips; a range break is less likely before London
  • BoE's Bailey (Thu 10:50 UTC) could materially shift the read via December hike odds

23:16 UTC

Sideways after London rally, momentum neutral · RSI 48 · price 1.3392

Range 1.3377–1.3403 below the 1.3400 cap, early Asia.

London lifted GBPUSD out of the 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range after the 06:00 UTC CPI beat spiked two ways from 1.3364. The rally then stalled at the 1.3400 cap, with three rejections up to 1.3403 as the hot print failed to extend. The 19:00 UTC dip held at the ny low of 1.3377, near the 61.8% of the CPI leg, and price is now mid-range at 1.3392 above the rollover low, with RSI at 48 and price sitting on the EMAs.

Support: 1.3383, 1.3377, 1.3370

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.3403

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 1.3400 cap at 1.3403 breaks the range top. The late ny high at 1.3397 is the first test.
  • A close below the ny low at 1.3377 (CPI leg 61.8%) confirms a lower-low after the triple failure at 1.3400. That exposes the asian low at 1.3370.
  • Loss of the rollover low at 1.3383 during the Asia session would shift the range read lower.
  • Bailey speaks Thu 10:50 UTC and US jobless claims print at 12:30 UTC; either could materially shift this read.

23:01 UTC

Sideways, capped under 1.3400 · RSI 45 · price 1.33898

Post-CPI range 1.3377–1.3403, Asia mid-range drift.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC produced a two-way spike before London lifted GBP/USD out of the tight Asian range, but the 1.3400 cap held on four tests, with rejection at the 1.3403 session high. NY dips set the low at 1.3377, and the bounce high at 1.3397 then gave way to a rollover low at 1.3383. Asia session is now drifting at 1.3390 mid-range with RSI(14) neutral near 45 and ATR shrinking to under 5 pips.

Support: 1.33833, 1.33766

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.34029

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3403 session high breaks the 1.3400 cap and the range read
  • Failure to hold the 1.3383 rollover low exposes the 1.3377 NY low; a break there confirms a lower low
  • Reclaim of the 1.3397 bounce high puts the 1.3400 cap back in play
  • BoE Bailey speaks Thu 10:50 UTC and could materially shift this read

22:46 UTC

Sideways after post-CPI lift, momentum flat · RSI 48 · price 1.33901

Range 1.3377–1.3403 since London morning, top capped three times.

The UK CPI beat whipsawed GBPUSD to a 1.3364 CPI low before London lifted it into a 1.3377–1.3403 range. Three tests of the 1.3400/1.3403 session high faded, with the NY low at 1.3377 holding near the 61.8% fib. Early Asia is flat around 1.3390, just above the 50% fib at 1.3384, with RSI(14) neutral near 48 and price sitting just under both EMAs.

Support: 1.3384, 1.3377, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.3403

  • Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC could materially shift this read

22:31 UTC

Flat, capped under 1.3400 · RSI 56 · price 1.33911

Range 1.3377–1.3403 after London breakout from Asian range.

The UK CPI beat whipsawed price between 1.3364 and 1.3385 at 06:00 UTC, then London broke the Asian range and rallied to a 1.3403 session high. Through NY, supply capped price under 1.3400 twice, and the late-NY dip to the 1.3377 ny low at the 61.8% retracement was a false break that recovered quickly. Price now sits at 1.3391, flat around the EMAs in thin trade after the rollover low at 1.3383.

Support: 1.33833, 1.33766, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.34029, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3403 session high breaks the range top and brings the 1.3409 weekly high into view
  • Failure to hold the 1.3377 ny low (61.8% retracement) exposes the 1.3364 cpi low
  • Rollover low at 1.3383 is the first intraday reference during the Asia session
  • Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC could materially shift this read

22:17 UTC

Range 1.3377–1.3403, mid-range in early Asia session.

The hot UK CPI beat lifted GBPUSD off the 1.3364 cpi low into a 1.3377–1.3403 range. The 1.3400 cap has rejected four times since London, while the 1.3377 swing low held twice near the 61.8% retracement of the CPI move. Early Asia trade sits mid-range at 1.3392, flat on both EMAs, with RSI(14) near 51 and ATR around 6 pips.

Support: 1.3383, 1.3377, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.3403

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 1.3400 cap at 1.3403 breaks the range top
  • The 1.3397 rebound high is the first intraday cap inside the range
  • Loss of the 1.3383 rollover low exposes the 1.3377 swing low; a break there puts the 1.3364 cpi low back in focus
  • Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC could materially shift this read

22:01 UTC

Sideways after CPI lift, range-bound · RSI 46 · price 1.33916

1.3377–1.3403 range since London open, top capped four times.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC whipsawed GBPUSD to a 1.3364 low before London lifted it out of the tight Asian range. Price then held a 1.3377–1.3403 range, with the range top rejected four times through NY and a lower high at 1.3397 after the 19:00 UTC dip. In early Asia it sits mid-range at 1.3392, just above the rollover low at 1.3383 and flat on EMA20, with RSI(14) near 46.

Support: 1.33833, 1.33766, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.34029

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3403 range top breaks the four-test cap
  • Loss of the 1.3377 range low (61.8% of the CPI move) exposes the 1.3364 cpi low
  • Failure to hold the 1.3383 rollover low (50% of the CPI move) puts the range low back in focus
  • BoE Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC could materially shift this read; US Initial Claims follow at 12:30 UTC

21:46 UTC

Sideways after CPI pop, capped at 1.3400 · RSI 45 · price 1.33907

Range 1.3377–1.3403 since London; three rejections at the range top.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC lifted GBPUSD from the 1.3364 CPI low. Supply has since capped the 1.3400 area three times, with the day high at 1.3403, keeping price in a 1.3377–1.3403 range through London and NY. A late-NY drop found demand at the 1.3377 swing low near the 61.8% fib. The 1.3383 rollover low held, and price now sits mid-range below EMA20/50 in early Asia session with RSI(14) at 45.

Support: 1.33833, 1.33766, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.34029

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3403 day high breaks the range top and the 1.3400 cap
  • Failure at the 1.3377 swing low confirms a lower-low and exposes the 1.3364 CPI low
  • Reclaim of the 1.3397 lower high returns focus to the range top; loss of the 1.3383 rollover low shifts it to the floor
  • Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC and US jobless claims 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

21:32 UTC

Post-CPI range, momentum flat · RSI 48 · price 1.33875

Range 1.3377–1.3403 since London, capped at 1.3400.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC spiked GBPUSD to the 1.3364 cpi low before a London rally into the 1.3400 cap, where the 1.3403 session high and repeated 1.3401–1.3402 tops held through NY. A late-NY drop found the 1.3377 swing low at the 61.8% of the CPI rally, then rebounded to a 1.3397 late-NY high. Price now sits near the 38.2% at 1.3388 after a thin rollover dip to the 1.3383 rollover low, just under both EMAs with RSI(14) at 48.

Support: 1.3383, 1.3377, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.3403

What it said to watch

  • M15 close below the 1.3377 swing low breaks the post-CPI range and exposes the 1.3364 cpi low
  • Sustained trade above the 1.3403 session high invalidates the 1.3400 cap and the range read
  • Failure to hold the 1.3383 rollover low during the Asian range puts the 61.8% cpi rally fib back in focus
  • A move back above the 1.3397 late-ny high puts the 1.3400 cap back in play
  • BoE Gov. Bailey speech Thu 10:50 UTC and US Initial Claims at 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

1.3377–1.3403 range since London; repeated caps at day high, price in lower half.

Hot UK CPI at 06:00 UTC broke the 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range higher, but London and NY were rejected four times at the 1.3400–1.3403 day high, and a 19:00 UTC false break below the 1.3377 swing low was reclaimed. Price sits at 1.3386 below both EMAs after a thin rollover dip to the 1.3383 rollover low, inside the 38.2–50% zone of the CPI rally fib. RSI(14) is near 41 and ATR is about 5.6 pips.

Support: 1.33833, 1.33766, 1.3364

Resistance: 1.3397, 1.34029

What it said to watch

  • M15 close above the 1.3397 late NY high brings the 1.3403 day high and range top back into play
  • Failure to hold the 1.3377 swing low breaks the range floor and exposes the 1.3364 cpi low

Range 1.3377–1.3403 since London, mid-range rebound late NY.

The 06:00 UTC UK CPI beat briefly pushed GBPUSD below the Asian range to the 1.3364 cpi low before London drove it to the 1.3403 session high. That high capped repeated tests through NY. A late-NY drop held the 1.3377 ny low near the 61.8% of the CPI rally, and price now sits flat on EMA20 just under the 1.3397 bounce high, RSI(14) 46.

The hot UK CPI beat swept the 1.3364 cpi low at 06:00 UTC. London then rallied into the 1.3403 range top, where supply has capped five tests near the 1.3400 cap flagged in coverage. A late NY dip to the 1.3377 late-ny low broke below the 61.8% retracement of the CPI rally and was reclaimed within a bar. Price now sits just under the 1.3397 late-ny high in quiet post-NY trade.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC drove a break above the 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range. Since then, the 1.3403 session high has capped three tests at the 1.3400 round number, leaving a 1.3377–1.3403 range. Late in NY, price dipped below the earlier swing low to 1.3377, at the 61.8% retracement of the CPI leg fib, and reclaimed it within one bar. Price is now flat at the ema20 near 1.3392.

The hot UK CPI print whipsawed price to the 1.3364 cpi low at 06:00 UTC before London lifted it out of the Asian range. Supply has capped every push at 1.3400–1.3403, the session high, through London and NY. Buyers stepped in at the 1.3379 ny low and set a 1.3382 higher low, and price is now holding just under the figure late in the NY session with RSI(14) neutral.

Range 1.3379–1.3403 after CPI rally, higher low intact.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC swept to the 1.3364 cpi low before London drove GBP to a 1.3403 day high. NY retraced to the 1.3379 swing low, which held at the 61.8% fib, and price has since rebuilt into the 1.3400 round number, where it has stalled in late NY.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC broke the Asian range higher. Since London, the pair has ranged between 1.3379 and 1.3403, with the session high rejecting four tests near 1.3400. The NY low at 1.3379 held at the 61.8% level of the CPI-move fib, measured from the 1.3364 cpi low, and price is back pressing the cap after London close, holding above the ema20 with RSI(14) near 64.

NY's pullback held the 1.3379 ny low at the 61.8% fib, a 1.3382 higher low followed, and price is pressing the session high again late in NY with RSI(14) near 62.

Hot UK CPI drove a London break of the Asian range top near 1.3378 and a run to a 1.3403 session high, where three tests of the 1.3400 area ended in rejection. Lower highs since Bailey's 13:00 UTC appearance pulled price back to the 61.8% retrace and NY low at 1.3379, which held on a retest of the breakout zone.

The hot UK CPI print took London through the Asian range top near 1.3378 to a 1.3403 session high. Since Bailey's 13:00 UTC slot, NY has printed lower highs along a descending trendline, and the 1.3379 NY low has retested the Asian range top at the 61.8% of the CPI rally. The 15:30 UTC rejection at 1.3395 leaves price below EMA20 and sitting on EMA50 after London close.

Hot UK CPI at 06:00 UTC whipped price to a 1.3364 cpi low. London then broke the Asian range top near 1.3378 and ran to a 1.3403 session high, with supply capping around the 1.3400 round number. A NY dip to the 1.3379 ny low retested the Asian high and the 61.8% of the CPI rally, and the 15:15 bar reclaimed the 1.3388–1.3403 London range; RSI(14) near 52, ATR about 6.5 pips.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC spiked GBPUSD to the 1.3364 cpi low before a London rally cleared the Asian range. Supply capped twice at 1.3400-1.3403, and NY hours have printed lower highs back to the 1.3380 ny low, the 50% retracement of the CPI leg, with price now below the ema20 near 1.3390.

Hot UK CPI printed a 1.3364 cpi low at 06:00 UTC. London then rallied through the Asian high and was rejected twice at the 1.3403 session high. Since Bailey's 13:00 UTC speech window and the NY open, price has broken the London low at 1.3388 and is testing the 1.3380 NY low near the 50% fib of the CPI leg, with RSI(14) near 41 and price under EMA20.

Early NY has slipped under the 1.3388 london floor, which sits on the 38.2% fib, and is probing the 1.3384 ny low. RSI(14) is near 40, and price is below EMA20 and sitting on EMA50.

London then lifted it out of the 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range to a 1.3401 session high, below yesterday's 1.3409 prior high, and the borrowing overshoot has helped cap gains there. Late London is compressing in a 1.3388–1.3401 band above the 23.6% fib, with RSI(14) neutral near 55.

London breakout above Asian high, now consolidating in a tight 1.3388–1.3401 band.

Hot UK CPI whipsawed GBPUSD to a 1.3364 CPI low before London broke above the 1.3378 Asian high and ran to a 1.3401 session high, just shy of yesterday's 1.3409 prior high. Mid-London, price is compressing in a 1.3388–1.3401 band and pressing the range low near the 38.2% retracement of the CPI low to session high leg, with RSI(14) neutral near 52 and price sitting on EMA20.

Mid-London, price is compressing in a 1.3389–1.3400 range near the 23.6% fib, with RSI(14) neutral at 56 and price just above EMA20.

London then broke above the 1.3378 Asian high and printed a 1.3401 session high, still just under yesterday's 1.3409 prior high.

The hot UK CPI print at 06:00 UTC whipsawed price through both sides of the tight 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range, setting the 1.3364 CPI low. London then broke above the Asian high in a HH/HL run to the 1.3401 session high, where supply capped price just under the 1.3409 prior high. The pullback low at 1.3389 sits on the 38.2% retrace of the CPI-low swing, and RSI(14) has cooled to ~70.

London break of Asian range, higher-low chain intact.

After the two-way UK CPI spike to the 1.3364 session low at 06:00 UTC, London broke the 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range and printed a 1.3401 session high, just under yesterday's 1.3409 prior high. The first dip held at the 1.3390 pullback low, near the 38.2% fib. RSI(14) near 76 is stretched but not extreme, and the digest flags the hot CPI being offset by the borrowing overshoot that has capped 1.3400.

Price is now pressing the 1.3400 psych level and one-month high, just under yesterday's prior high at 1.3409, with RSI(14) near 76.

  • Repeated rejection at 1.3400 psych would match the failure there flagged after the borrowing overshoot.
  • Loss of the 1.3383 swing low breaks the London higher-low line and exposes the Asian high at 1.3378.

The bar closed back inside the 1.3370–1.3380 Asian range, as the £24.52B borrowing miss offset the hawkish read.

The 06:00 UTC UK CPI beat swept both sides of the Asian range, to a 1.3385 CPI high and a 1.3364 CPI low, then closed back inside. GBP is stalling as hike pricing looks largely done and the borrowing miss offsets the hot print. Early London is flat near 1.3375, around the 50% retracement of Tuesday's rally.

The hot UK CPI print (3.5% vs 3.4%) spiked price to a 1.3385 CPI high and a 1.3364 CPI low, the 61.8% fib of that rally, before closing back inside the range, with no follow-through yet.

The 06:00 GMT UK CPI bar swept both sides in a 21-pip whipsaw, from the 1.3385 cpi high to the 1.3364 cpi low, the 61.8% fib of that rally, and closed back on the asian low just before London open.

  • Reclaim of the 1.3378 asian high and the 1.3385 cpi high turns the read back toward the 1.3409 day high
  • The CPI actual is not in the inputs. A confirmed soft print, per the digest, aligns with a slide below the cpi low.
  • US-Iran deal headlines and DXY swings could reprice the USD leg during the London session

Range-bound, CPI bar lifting price to range top · RSI 66 · price 1.33809

Asian range 1.3370–1.3378 broken higher on the 06:00 GMT CPI bar.

Cable spent Asia in a tight 1.3370–1.3378 range near the 50% of the Tuesday rally fib. The 06:00 GMT UK CPI bar broke above the range ahead of London open and tagged the cpi bar high at 1.3385, level with the late-NY high. RSI(14) is near 66 and ATR is about 3.4 pips, a pre-release reading that understates likely movement.

Support: 1.3378, 1.3370, 1.3365

Resistance: 1.33853, 1.3400, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • A close above the 1.3385 cpi bar high opens 1.3400, the round number, and 1.3409, the Tuesday high (tue high).
  • A move back below 1.3378, the asian high, would turn the break into a false break. Failure at 1.3370, the asian low, exposes the 1.3365 ny low and the 61.8% of the Tuesday rally fib.
  • UK CPI actual is not in the inputs. Headline and core versus the 3.4% / 2.7% forecasts will set the London session range, and Bailey speaks Thu 10:50 GMT.

Post-rally pullback, flat into London · RSI 46 · price 1.33741

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378 near the 50% retrace of Tuesday's rally.

The UK jobs beat and a softer USD carried cable from 1.3336 to a 1.3409 session high in NY. It has since faded to the 50% retrace of that move, and the late NY high at 1.3385 capped the bounce. Asia compressed into an 8-pip box between the 1.3370 Asian low and the 1.3378 Asian high, with ATR near 3 pips ahead of the London open and UK CPI.

Support: 1.33701, 1.33651

Resistance: 1.33783, 1.33849, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK September CPI at 06:00 UTC (f/c 3.4% y/y, core 2.7%) is landing now and could materially shift this read
  • M15 close below the 1.3370 Asian low exposes the 1.3365 swing low, which sits near the 61.8% retrace
  • M15 close above the 1.3378 Asian high breaks the range; the 1.3385 NY high is the next cap before the 1.3409 session high

Sideways after NY spike, momentum flat · RSI 52 · price 1.33754

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378 inside the pullback from the 1.3409 high.

The jobs beat and a weaker USD in the NY session drove cable from 1.3340 to a 1.3409 session high, then it retraced to a 1.3365 NY pb low near the 61.8% fib. Asia has compressed into an 8-pip box between the 1.3370 asian low and the 1.3378 asian high, sitting on the 50% fib with RSI(14) neutral near 52 and price pinned to flat EMAs.

  • M15 close above the 1.3378 asian high, then the 1.3385 evening high (38.2% fib), reopens the 1.3409 session high
  • M15 close below the 1.3370 asian low exposes the 1.3365 NY pb low; losing that breaks the 61.8% fib of the NY rally

Flat after jobs-day rally, consolidating · RSI 54 · price 1.33751

Tight Asian range sitting at 38.2–50% retracement.

The Asian session has compressed into an 8-pip range between the 1.3370 Asian low and 1.3378 Asian high. That range sits between the 38.2% and 50% retracement of Tuesday's jobs rally (jobs rally fib, 1.3328 to the 1.3409 day high). RSI(14) is neutral near 54 and ATR(14) is about 3 pips into UK CPI, now roughly 30 minutes out.

Support: 1.3370, 1.3365

Resistance: 1.3378, 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 GMT (f/c 3.4% y/y, core 2.7%) is the likely catalyst for a break of the Asian range.
  • An M15 close above the 1.3385 late ny high opens the path back to the 1.3409 day high, the scenario if CPI prints at or above 3.5%.
  • Failure to hold the 1.3370 Asian low and 1.3365 ny low takes price through the 50% retracement, the downside scenario on a CPI miss.
  • An in-line CPI print keeps the 1.3370–1.3385 band in play, with USD/Iran headlines then setting direction.

Flat, compressing after NY rally · RSI 51 · price 1.33735

Tight Asian range at 50% retrace of NY leg.

Cable ran to a 1.3409 prior high in NY on the jobs beat and softer USD. It has since compressed into a 1.3370–1.3378 Asian range, sitting on the 50% retrace of that rally. RSI(14) is neutral near 51 and ATR has shrunk to about 3 pips, with the late NY high at 1.3385 overhead and the post-rally swing low at 1.3365 below.

Support: 1.3370, 1.3365, 1.3358

Resistance: 1.3378, 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 GMT (f/c 3.4% y/y, core 2.7%) is due in under an hour and could materially shift this read; the current compression leaves the Asian range exposed to a break.
  • An M15 close below the 1.3370 asian low and the 1.3365 swing low opens the 61.8% retrace and the 1.3358 breakout top from Tuesday's jobs move.
  • An M15 close above the 1.3378 asian high and the 1.3385 late NY high puts the 1.3409 prior high back in view.

Flat after jobs-driven rally, retraced half · RSI 50 · price 1.3374

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378 at 50% of Tuesday's rally.

Tuesday's UK jobs beat and a softer USD carried cable from 1.3336 to the 1.3409 jobs high in NY hours. It has since retraced to the swing low at 1.3367 and the 50% fib, and the Asian range is pinned between the 1.3370 asian low and the 1.3378 asian high. Late Asia session, RSI(14) neutral at 50, ATR compressed near 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

  • Failure to hold the 1.3367 swing low (61.8% fib zone) exposes the 1.3350 round number

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3381 holding above the NY low.

Cable ran from 1.3329 to a 1.3409 prior high on Tuesday's UK jobs beat and a softer USD, then saw rejection there and found a floor at the 1.3365 NY low. Late Asia is now compressing between the 1.3370 Asian low, which sits near the 50% retracement of the jobs rally, and 1.3381. Price is pressing the range top near the 38.2% level, with the 1.3385 late NY high just above.

  • UK CPI at 06:00 GMT (f/c 3.4% y/y, core 2.7%) is likely to break the Asian range and reset this read
  • M15 close above the 1.3385 late NY high puts the 1.3409 prior high back in focus
  • Failure to hold the 1.3370 Asian low exposes the 1.3365 NY low and a deeper retracement of the jobs rally
  • ATR near 3.5 pips reflects pre-CPI compression and understates likely post-release ranges

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378, near 50% retrace of the 1.3336–1.3409 leg.

The UK jobs beat and broad USD softness lifted cable from 1.3336 to a 1.3409 session high in NY, where supply capped the move and price slid back to the 1.3365 NY swing low. Asia has compressed into a 1.3370–1.3378 range around the 50% fib, with RSI(14) flat near 51 and ATR(14) about 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

  • M15 close below the 1.3370 Asian low exposes the 1.3365 NY swing low and the 61.8% fib near 1.3364
  • Failure to hold 1.3365 points back toward the 1.3351 breakout base of the NY leg
  • M15 close above the 1.3378 Asian high opens the 1.3385 late-NY high, then the 1.3409 session high

Post-rally pullback, flat in Asia · RSI 53 · price 1.33745

Tight Asian range below 38.2% retracement of jobs rally.

The jobs rally lifted cable from 1.3328 on Tuesday's UK labour beat to a 1.3409 jobs high in NY hours. Price then pulled back to the 1.3365 NY low, near the 50% fib. Asia has compressed into a 1.3370–1.3378 range between the asian low and asian high, with the range top sitting on the 38.2% retracement; RSI(14) is flat near 53 and ATR is about 3.4 pips ahead of UK CPI.

Flat after a jobs-driven rally and partial pullback · RSI 52 · price 1.33743

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378, capped at the 38.2% fib.

Late Asia has compressed into an 8-pip range, with the Asian high at 1.3378 sitting on the 38.2% fib of the jobs rally. That rally ran from 1.3328 to the 1.3409 session high; the NY low at 1.3365 marks the deepest pullback. Price is mid-range at 1.3374, RSI(14) neutral near 52 and ATR(14) about 3 pips, so there is no setup in play ahead of UK CPI.

Support: 1.3370, 1.3365

Resistance: 1.3378, 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 GMT, before London open, is the main catalyst. The digest frames a 3.5%+ print as GBP-supportive and 3.3% or below as a risk of unwinding the jobs rally.
  • An M15 close above the 1.3378 asian high clears the 38.2% fib and puts the 1.3385 late ny high and the 1.3409 session high back in view.
  • A break below the 1.3370 asian low opens a retest of the 1.3365 ny low near the 50% fib; failure there exposes the 61.8% fib at 1.3359.
  • US-Iran headlines driving the USD side could break the Asian range before CPI.

The UK jobs beat at London open lifted cable off 1.3328. Softer USD then carried it to a 1.3409 session high in NY, where it met rejection and faded to a 1.3365 swing low near the 61.8% retrace. Asia has compressed into an 8-pip box between the asian low at 1.3370 and the asian high at 1.3378, sitting on the 50% retrace with ATR shrunk to about 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 GMT, about 2.5h away, could materially shift this read and is likely to resolve the Asian range
  • M15 close below the 1.3370 asian low exposes the 1.3365 swing low and then the 1.3337 london base

Tight Asian range 1.3370–1.3378 beneath the 1.3409 NY high, with a lower high at 1.3385.

Tuesday's UK jobs beat and a soft USD carried cable from the 1.3336 London low to a 1.3409 session high in NY. Price then retraced to the 50% fib near 1.3373, and the NY low at 1.3365 sits at the 61.8%. Asia is boxed in an 8-pip range between the 1.3370 Asian low and the 1.3378 Asian high, with RSI near 48 and ATR down to about 3.6 pips ahead of UK CPI.

Since then highs have stepped lower: the late NY high at 1.3385 gave way to an Asian range of 1.3370–1.3378. Price is pinned around the 50% level, sitting just above EMA20 and at EMA50, with ATR compressed near 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

Tight Asian range holding above the 61.8% retrace.

Hot UK jobs data and a softer USD lifted cable from the 1.3337 london low to the 1.3409 prior high in NY. Price then held the 1.3365 ny low near the 61.8% fib. The Asia session has compressed into a 1.3370–1.3381 range (asian low to asian high), with price now pressing the top and ATR(14) near 3 pips.

Lower highs from 1.3409 over a 1.3365-1.3370 floor; tight Asian coil.

Cable spiked on the UK jobs beat at 06:00 UTC, then extended to a 1.3409 session high in NY as USD softened on US-Iran deal hopes. It retraced to the 1.3365 ny swing low, near the 61.8% fib, and printed a lower high at 1.3385. Asia is a 6-pip coil between the 1.3370 asian low and the 1.3376 asian high under the descending trendline, with ATR(14) near 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

The UK jobs beat at 06:00 UTC lifted cable from 1.3330. USD weakness on US-Iran deal reports then extended the move to a session high at 1.3409, where it met rejection during NY hours. Price has since faded into a 6-pip Asian range of 1.3370–1.3376, sitting on the 50% retrace of the move from the 1.3336 rally base, with ATR(14) compressed near 3 pips.

  • A break back above the asian high at 1.3376 and the 1.3385 swing high reopens the 1.3409 session high.

The UK jobs beat at 06:00 UTC and a soft USD lifted cable from the london low at 1.3336 to a session high of 1.3409, but the push above 1.3400 was rejected. Price retraced to the ny low at 1.3365, near the 61.8% fib, and is now compressing in a 7-pip Asian range (asian low 1.3371, asian high 1.3378) at the 50% fib, with ATR(14) shrinking to about 3 pips.

Support: 1.3371, 1.3365, 1.3336

  • M15 close below the asian low at 1.3371 exposes the ny low at 1.3365 and the 61.8% fib
  • A move through the late-ny high at 1.3385 reopens the session high at 1.3409 and the 1.3400 rejection zone

Price was rejected there and fell to the 1.3365 NY low, near the 61.8% fib of the rally, then printed a lower high at 1.3385. Asia is compressing in a 7-pip band between the 1.3371 Asian low and the 1.3378 Asian high, around the 50% retracement, with ATR(14) near 3 pips ahead of UK CPI.

Support: 1.3371, 1.3365, 1.3359

Resistance: 1.3378, 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 UTC (f/c 3.4% YoY) in ~5h: a miss vs a near-fully priced BoE hike could materially shift this read
  • An M15 close below the 1.3371 Asian low exposes the 1.3365 NY low; a break there opens the prior London high at 1.3359
  • A close above the 1.3385 lower high breaks the lower-highs line and brings the 1.3409 session high back into view
  • US-Iran deal confirmation or denial headlines could move USD outside the Asian range

Post-rally pullback, flattening · RSI 50 · price 1.33734

Lower highs since 1.3409, tight Asia compression above 50% fib.

The UK jobs beat and USD softness lifted cable from 1.3328 to a 1.3409 day high during NY hours, where it was rejected and faded to the 1.3365 swing low. Price is now compressing in a roughly 5-pip Asian range just above the 1.3370 Asia low and the 50% fib near 1.3369, with RSI(14) neutral and ATR(14) contracting ahead of UK CPI.

Support: 1.3370, 1.3365

Resistance: 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • A break of the 1.3370 Asia low exposes the 1.3365 swing low and the 61.8% fib near 1.3359
  • A close above the 1.3385 late-NY high reopens 1.3400 and the 1.3409 day high
  • UK CPI at 06:00 UTC (f/c 3.4% YoY, 2.7% core) could materially shift this read; with a hike ~95% priced, a miss carries the larger reaction risk

Post-rally pullback, momentum flat · RSI 41 · price 1.33724

Tight Asian range below 1.3385 lower high, sitting on 50% retrace.

Cable is compressing in a 5-pip Asian range (1.3371–1.3376) after the UK jobs beat and soft USD drove a rally to a 1.3409 day high in NY. Price sits on the 50% retrace of that leg and flat on EMA50 but below EMA20, with RSI(14) near 41 and ATR around 3.7 pips. That is quiet pre-CPI positioning, with the prior London high at 1.3359 further below.

Support: 1.3370, 1.3365, 1.3359

Resistance: 1.3376, 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • UK CPI at 06:00 UTC (f/c 3.4% YoY, core 2.7%) is the event most likely to resolve the Asian range
  • Break below the asian low at 1.3370 exposes the ny low at 1.3365, the 61.8% fib, then the london high at 1.3359
  • Close above the asian high at 1.3376 and the late ny high at 1.3385 reopens the 1.3409 day high
  • Confirmation or denial of US-Iran deal reports could jolt USD before the CPI print

00:01 UTC

Post-rally pullback, momentum flat · RSI 42 · price 1.3373

Tight 1.3370–1.3385 band after rejection below 1.3410.

Cable jumped at the 06:00 UTC London open on the UK jobs beat, then a second NY rally on broad USD softness tagged a 1.3409 day high before rejection just above 1.3400 knocked it back to a 1.3365 swing low. Late NY and the start of Asia have compressed between 1.3370 and the 1.3385 late NY high, with price parked on the 50% retrace of the NY rally and RSI(14) neutral near 42.

Support: 1.3365, 1.3336

Resistance: 1.3385, 1.3409

What it said to watch

  • Break below the 1.3365 swing low (61.8% of the NY rally) exposes the 1.3336 london low
  • M15 close above the 1.3385 late ny high reopens the 1.3409 day high and 1.3400 psych
  • UK CPI at 06:00 UTC (f/c 3.4% YoY, 2.7% core) could materially shift this read; a miss carries more downside risk given hike pricing
