GBPUSD Outlook: Strong UK Jobs Data Could Boost Recovery But Brexit Remains Key Driver

Cable bounces from new nearly two-week low at 1.2827, hit on Monday after the pair registered loss of 2.10% in past three sessions, on steep fall driven by increased Brexit concerns.

Today's recovery attempts were triggered by profit-taking and announcement from EU's chief Brexit negotiator who said that key points of divorce treaty are ready to present to the UK cabinet.

Fresh optimism drove the price higher but the action faced headwinds at 1.2900 zone and stays below, awaiting release of UK labor data for fresh signals.

Strengthening momentum on daily chart supports recovery and oversold slow stochastic also signaling corrective action.

Lift above 1.2946 (Monday's high/falling 20SMA) is needed to generate fresh bullish signal for extension towards upper pivot at 1.2980 (daily cloud base), firm break of which would neutralize existing bearish bias and shift focus higher.

Forecasts for today's UK jobs data are positive (Sep avg earnings f/c 3.0% vs 2.7% prev/Oct jobless claims 4.3% f/c vs 18.5K prev ), with releases above expectations to further boost recovery, however, focus will remain on Brexit talks which proved to be pounds key driver.

EURUSD Outlook: Bears Consolidate After Strong Fall On Monday, German ZEW Data Not Expected To Impact Overall Bearish Picture

The Euro holds in recovery mode in early Tuesday’s trading after suffering strong losses on Monday (down 0.9% for the day in the biggest one-day fall since 27 Sep).

Bounce from new multi-month low at 1.1215, posted on Monday, showed limited upside action as overall picture remains negative.

The story of Italy’s budget continues to weigh strongly on EURUSD pair, with additional pressure on interest rate divergence, bearish techs and persisting fears over US/China trade conflict.

German Oct CPI came in line with expectations, with immediate focus turning on German ZEW economic sentiment data (Nov -24.2 f/c vs -24.7 prev) which could boost recovery on better than expected release.

Overall picture remains bearish, suggesting limited recovery before bears re-take control.

Former key supports at 1.1300 zone now mark solid resistance, ahead of falling 10SMA (1.1351) which is expected to cap extended upticks and keep bears intact.
