Today, the United Kingdom has already released its data on the volume of industrial production, where the growth rate has slowed from 27.5% to 20.6%. The indicators in annual terms still look very large due to the effect of a low base, so it is recommended to focus on the monthly terms, where an increase of 0.8% is observed, against the expected 1.2%.

The rate of recovery of the British industry is below expectations, so the pound sterling is under pressure.

Buy signal

In this case, the level of 1.1800 continues to play the role of support in the market, which leads to a prolongation of the pullback stage. Traders consider buy positions above the level of 1.1900, with the prospective movement to 1.1950.

Short positions or Short means positions to sell in anticipation of a decline in the value of the asset.

* The support level is the so-called price level, from which the quote can slow down or stop the downward course. The principle of constructing this level is to reduce the points of support on the history of the chart, where the price reversal in the market has already occurred earlier.

It is worth considering that the support level cannot be eternal and constantly leads to a price reversal. Therefore, traders always have an alternative scenario for the development of the market, which considers the breakdown of this level.
