EUR/USD
Current level – 1.1557
The common European currency continues to depreciate against the dollar and, yesterday, the pair violated the support level of 1.1562. The expectations are for the downtrend to continue, leading the EUR/USD towards a test of the support level of 1.1500, which is coming from the higher time frames. In the positive direction, the previously mentioned level of 1.1562 is now acting as a resistance for the pair. During today’s session, volatility will most likely spike after the announcement of the initial jobless claims data for the U.S. at 12:30 GMT.

GBP/USD
Current level – 1.3588
The sterling managed to partially recover its losses against the dollar in the first half of the week and is currently in a consolidation phase just below the resistance level of 1.3609. The expectations are for the Cable to test and violate the level of 1.3609, which would strengthen the positive sentiment and pave the way for an attack on the resistance zone of 1.3752. In the negative direction, the first support lies at 1.3520.
