The British pound fell sharply after the dismissed housing activity. USD is supported by a series of positive economic data.
IMPACT ON GBP: Construction output growth slowed down moving away from June’s four-month high. Residential building expands at the weakest rates since mid-2013. The headline seasonally adjusted Markit/CIPS UK Construction Purchasing Managers’ Index eased slightly from June’s four-month high of 58.1.
Upcoming events: Ahead of the US jobs data, traders focused on the US dollar. Today, they eye the ADP no-farm employment change, trade balance, and ISM non-manufacturing PMI. Traders do expect wild moves during a day.

Bullish developments-The cable has been reaching higher lows in the weekly pattern support at 1.5450. The weekly trading pattern is framed between 1.5450 and 1.5700. The cable finally closed above 50Wsma at 1.5535.
