Data on durable goods orders in the United States declined 5.4% in October, while the forecast predicted a drop of only 2.8%. The negative impact was slightly mitigated by data on jobless claims in the U.S., which reflected a decrease in their overall volume despite the forecast of an increase. Statistical details indicate that the volume of continuing claims fell from 1.862 million to 1.840 million, while the volume of initial claims rose from 233,000 to 209,000.
During the corrective movement, the EUR/USD currency pair almost reached the level of 1.0850. This movement was characterized in the market as local, after which the quote returned above the level of 1.0900.
The GBP/USD pair temporarily dropped below the level of 1.2450 during a technical pullback, but then returned to the area around the level of 1.2500. The current pullback fits into the structure of an upward cycle, and no shifts in trading interests are observed.
The publication of preliminary estimates for business activity indices in the United Kingdom and the United States is expected. Despite the importance of this event for the market, it is likely to go unnoticed. Today is a holiday in the United States due to Thanksgiving Day, which, in turn, will lead to a decrease in trading volumes.
Price stabilization above the level of 1.0900 may indicate a possible increase in the volume of long positions, paving the way to the level of 1.1000. On the other hand, holding the price below the level of 1.0850 may lead to an extension of the corrective cycle.
Maintaining the price above the level of 1.2500 may subsequently indicate an increase in the volume of long positions. In this case, an update of the local high within the upward cycle is possible. As for the pullback scenario, it may be relevant if the price remains below the level of 1.2450.
