The final data on the UK GDP for the third quarter unexpectedly turned out to be better than forecasts. Preliminary estimates previously indicated a slowdown in economic growth from 23.6% to 6.6%. However, the results of the second quarter were revised for the better, namely to 24.2%. According to the results of the third quarter, the growth rate was 6.8%.

The US GDP in the third quarter increased by 2.3% in annual terms. The growth was worse than what was expected by experts. GDP was expected to increase by 2.8%. It is assumed that one of the factors of this was the problems related to disruptions in the supply chains of goods in the country.

In general, the US statistics are worse than expected. The US dollar was under pressure from sellers.

Despite a number of speculative surges, traders are still inclined to rebound trading tactics relative to the set borders of the flat. If expectations coincide, the area of the upper border at 1.1355 may increase interest in short positions in the direction of 1.1290.
An alternative scenario, which is also the most profitable, is the method of breaking through one or another flat border. In this case, patience and time are needed here, since the side channel will end sooner or later.

Speculative interest is still observed in this situation, which pushes buyers to break through the local high on December 16. So, a signal for subsequent purchases will appear in the market when the price is holding above the level of 1.3375 in a four-hour period. This step may start the process of inertia towards 1.3400.
An alternative scenario considers the process of slowing down relative to the current levels.
