The preliminary inflation assessment for the eurozone in August remained at 5.3% year-on-year. At the same time, core inflation slowed to 5.3% YoY, back at the May level, from 5.5% in June and July.
The EUR/USD currency pair sharply declined after briefly holding the price above the 1.0900 level. This sharp drop may be associated with speculative actions and, as a result, led to an overheating of short positions in the short term.
GBP/USD, following the euro, also moved downward, possibly due to a correlation between the trading instruments. Consequently, the quote reached a value of 1.2650.
Today, a report from the United States Department of Labor is expected to be published, which is likely to influence the market and speculators.
The unemployment rate is expected to remain unchanged, while new jobs might be created only in the amount of 170,000. This implies that for the past two months, the number of new jobs has been below 200,000, posing a risk of an increase in the unemployment rate.

Based on the technical signal of the euro's overselling, as well as fundamental analysis, a recovery of the euro's rate to values of 1.0900/1.0950 is feasible. Nevertheless, if we rely on the concept of inertial motion, maintaining the price below the 1.0830 level could lead the quote back to the area where the downward cycle begins.
For the subsequent weakening of the pound sterling's rate, it's essential to consistently keep the price below the 1.2650 mark. Otherwise, there's a chance the quote might return to the range of values between 1.2700/1.2750.

Horizontal levels are price coordinates, relative to which a price may stop or reverse its trajectory. In the market, these levels are called support and resistance.
Circles and rectangles are highlighted examples where the price reversed in history. This color highlighting indicates horizontal lines that may put pressure on the asset's price in the future.
The up/down arrows are landmarks of the possible price direction in the future.
