EU Session Bullet Report

Market focus is on BoE and the GBPUSD today. Bank of England meets to announce its interest rate decision, the inflation report and reveal the Banks minutes from the last meeting. GBPUSD is currently trading cautiously ahead of this important event. The pair has an immediate resistance at 1.5400/05 (round number/ 1h 50-SMA), above which 1.5442/50 (100-DMA/ psychological levels) would be tested.

After the relatively hawkish statement from the 28 October FOMC meeting and not least the fairly upbeat comments on the US economy from Jannet Yellen yesterday, today’s long list of speeches from FOMC member S.Fisher, Dudley, Tarullo and Lockhart will be watched closely.

Yesterday, hawkish comments from Fed members and upbeat economic data sparked a USD rally across the board. Gold hit a new monthly low at 1106 while EURUSD followed suit posting 1.0835 lows.
