Talking Points:

- The British Pound[1] has seen some two-way volatility this morning, initially jumping on a stronger-than-expected inflation print from the month of August[2], showing the second consecutive month of inflation gains after the earlier-year drawdown in the indicator. This was soon offset by negative Brexit headlines[3], and prices erased the entirety of that earlier gain and then some. At this point, the big question is whether buyers come-in to defend higher-low support, keeping the door open for bullish continuation; or whether we see a deeper retracement develop.

- Both EUR/USD[4] and DXY[5] are holding around similar levels as yesterday. EUR/USD put in another test of key resistance while USD/DXY continues to hold around the August/September swing-lows. We discussed these themes in-depth in our webinar yesterday entitled, US Dollar Price Action Setups as USD Wobbles at Support[6].
