The Pound, however, was not that affected by stronger U.S. Dollar as Euro was affected due to the upcoming U.K. General Elections in December. Let's look at major trade setups today...   On Monday, the leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin prices decreased over the last 24 hours, placing their lowest price in more than six months.

At 13:30 GMT, the German Flash Manufacturing PMI also came in favor of Euro as 43.8 against the expectations of 42.9. But the German Flash Services PMI did not support Euro because it decreased to 51.3 in November against the expectations of 52.0 from the October's 51.6. The Manufacturing PMI for the whole Eurozone increased to 46.6 in November from October's 45.9 and the expectations of 46.4 and supported the single currency Euro on Friday. However, the Services PMI for zone decreased to 51.5 from the October's 52.2 and expectations of 52.4 and came in against Euro. Euro on Friday raised in the beginning session with the robust PMI data from France, but after the release of mixed data from Germany and the Eurozone, Euro traders got confused with setting the trend for EUR/USD. The weaker than expected and drop in the services sector from Eurozone was alarming. However, the Manufacturing sector's performance was satisfactory.

At 19:45 GMT, the Flash Manufacturing PMI of the United States showed growth to 52.2 from the expectations of 51.5 for November. The Flash Services PMI was also increased to 51.6 for November from October's 50.6. More than expected, PMI gave strength to U.S. dollars on Friday and further added in the downward movement of GBP/USD. On the news front, Trump's denial to sign Hong Kong Human Rights & Democracy Act to maintain a phase-one trade deal with China remained under headlines on Friday. The Pound, however, was not that affected by stronger U.S. Dollar as Euro was affected due to the upcoming U.K. General Elections in December. The Sterling was backed by the UK PM Boris Johnson's standing in the election polls. Johnson retains a strong lead over the Labour's Jeremy Corbyn. If Johnsons in the coming three weeks lose his number of followers and Corbyn gets the lead in polls near December 12, then it would alarm Sterling buyers to re-evaluate their positions. Till then, Pound's movement will remain limited. Support Resistance 1.2794 1.29 1.2756 1.2967 1.2651 1.3073 Pivot Point 1.2862 The GBP/USD continues to trade above previously held support level of 1.2827 level. The 50 periods EMA is now resisting the pair around 1.2890, and besides that, the three black crows candlestick pattern on the 4-hour chart is suggesting chances of a further selling in the cable. The GBP/USD can continue to trade with a bearish bias below 1.2860, with the next resistance around 1.2900 and 1.2970. Conversely, the bearish breakout below 1.2850 can lead to GBP/USD towards 1.2790. All the best for today.</span

On Friday, the forex trading setups are mostly depending upon the release of PMI data from the Eurozone, the U.K, and the U.S. Previously, the U.S. dollar index traded bullish on Thursday after the release of FOMC Meeting Minutes, where Federal Reserve decided to hold its Monetary Policy and decided not to cut its rates further this year. Strong USD put pressure on EUR/USD prices on Thursday. The U.S. & China trade deal was in highlights on Thursday. The South China Morning Post reported that China was waiting to know Donald Trump's decision regarding the Hong Kong bill passed by the U.S. Senate and would then respond. The cryptocurrency's bearish bias dominated the market to trigger a sharp sell-off until $7,334 level. For the moment, the BTC/USD is in a massively oversold zone, suggesting the chances of a bullish correction. To have a bullish correction, the BTC/USD needs to stay above the crucial trading level of $7,535 today. On the upper side, resistance can be seen around $7,765. In the daily timeframe, the BTC/USD has formed a descending triangle pattern, which is likely to keep the Bitcoin supported above 7,300 level.

For instance, the closing of Doji or a spinning top pattern above 7,300 can drive a bullish sentiment for the Bitcoin. Let's keep an eye on 7,300, as in case of a bearish breakout, the Bitcoin will be exposed to 6,500 zones. The EUR/USD was closed at 1.10581 after placing a high of 1.10969 and low of 1.10521. Overall the movement of the pair remained Bearish that day. On Thursday, The European Central Bank (ECB) released the minutes from their October Meeting. ECB cut deposit rates in September and started a Quantitative Easing Program (QE), so traders were eager to learn about the plans of ECB after the last monetary easing and had a focus on October Meeting Minutes. The former Head of European Central Bank, Mario Draghi, concluded his last monetary meeting in October and called for unity to increase inflation. The decision was heavily criticized by the policymakers who were in favor of the wait & see approach. According to the ECB October's Meeting minutes, some participants of the meeting raised doubts about the side effects of the proposed central bank's policy. A plea was made for patience to allow the September measures to work through the economy and supported a wait & see approach at the current juncture. Mario Draghi's final week of serving as the president of ECB was the time where he received harsh criticism from the chiefs of German, Dutch, French, and Austrian Central Banks. They were against his September's decision of monetary easing, where he relaunched the Q.E. program and cut interest rates. However, after October's meeting, the council decided to keep its monetary policy on hold. They emphasized that further easing would be made only under circumstances where they would help ECB to reach its goal of having inflation below 2%. Policymakers stressed that to achieve growth and inflation target, there was a long way to go, but they also gave positive expectations in this regard. Christine Lagarde officially took the position of ECB President after Mario Draghi for a non-renewable term of 8 Years on November 1. She will give her first speech on Friday during a Banking Conference in Frankfurt, and traders would focus on that speech. On the data front, Europe's Consumer Confidence was released at 20:00 GMT; it came in as expected -7 and had an almost null effect on EUR/USD prices. However, on the U.S. side, the U.S. Dollar index was raised on Thursday after the release of the FOMC Meeting Minutes, where Federal Reserve decided to hold its Monetary Policy and decided not to cut its rates further this year. Strong USD put pressure on EUR/USD prices on Thursday. Support Resistance 1.1054 1.109 1.1036 1.1108 1.1 1.1144 Pivot Point 1.1072 As anticipated, the EUR/USD continued to consolidate in a sideways trading range of 1.1085 - 1.1055. The bullish breakout of 1.1085 may lead the EUR/USD towards 1.1090 and 1.1115 level. Whereas, the violation of 1.1055 can drive further sell-off until 1.1035 today. The movement in the EUR/USD mostly depends upon the manufacturing and services PMI figures, which are due to come out during the European session today. The GBP/USD closed at 1.29047 after placing a high of 1.29698 and a low of 1.28927. Overall the movement of the pair remained Bearish that day. The Strong U.S. Dollar across the board and weakened pound gave pressure to the movement of GBP/USD on Thursday. At 14:30 GMT, the Public Sector Net Borrowing from the United Kingdom was released, which came in 10.5B greater than expected 8.5B and weakened the GBP on Thursday. However, on the American side, the U.S. Dollar index was raised on Thursday after the release of FOMC Meeting Minutes, where Federal Reserve decided to hold their Monetary Policy and decided not to cut its rates further this year. Strong USD put pressure on GBP/USD prices on Thursday. On the news front, the U.S. & China trade deal was in highlights on Thursday. The South China Morning Post reported that China was waiting to know Donald Trump's decision regarding the Hong Kong bill passed by the U.S. Senate and would then respond. U.S. Yields remain high on Thursday and supported greenback to move the currency pair in a downward direction. However, the lack of economic release from the U.K. side and any major news gave GBP/USD in the hands of Strong U.S. Dollar that day. Traders would be waiting for PMI data to be released on Friday, which would further set the direction of this pair GBP/USD. Support Resistance 1.2901 1.296 1.2876 1.2995 1.2816 1.3055 Pivot Point 1.2935 The GBP/USD continues to trade above previously held support level of 1.2887 level. The 50 periods EMA is now supporting the pair around 1.2895, and besides that, the bullish engulfing candlestick pattern on the 4-hour chart is suggesting chances of a further buying in the cable. The GBP/USD can continue to trade with a bullish bias above 1.2900, with the next resistance around 1.2945 and 1.2970. Conversely, the bearish breakout below 1.2895 can lead to GBP/USD towards 1.2840. All the best for today.

Overall the GBP/USD pair showed Null movement that day. In a televised election debate on Tuesday, PM Boris Johnson and opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn attacked each other's policies on the Economy, health care, and Brexit. Both parties seemed to fail to answer the question of voters why they should trust any of them. In an hourlong encounter, both politicians focused on their rival's weaknesses, and when tricky questions about their policy were asked, they sidestepped quietly. The debate was the first-ever head to head T.V. debate between British PM and his challenger. After the debate, the poll showed that the public was split over the decision that who was the victor. The poll suggested that 51% of voters were with PM Johnson, and 49% were with Corbyn. Elections are due on December 12, and Johnson has promised to leave Europe on January 31. He has been using this message to end Brexit crises quickly throughout his election campaign. As the debate could not provide a clear view of Public from Poll, the single currency Pound was not affected by the debate. And with no macroeconomic release on Wednesday from the United Kingdom, the pair GBP/USD was left with U.S. news & data. In the starting session on Wednesday, GBP/USD showed a drop, and after the release of FOMC October's Meeting minutes, the pair started to move in an upward direction. Minutes include information on holding interest rates and monetary policy for the time being. The upward movement was almost equal to the drop in the earlier session on Wednesday, and hence, the pair ended its trading day candle at the point where it started and showed almost zero movements for the day.

Later today, initial jobless claims for the week ending November 9 are expected to be 215,000. Producer prices are expected to grow 0.3% on month in October.   The BTC/USD has not moved much as it continues to follow the same technical levels. The BTC/USD continues to consolidate in a trading range of 8,836 - 8,600. Bitcoin (BTC) will cross the market cap of gold and could eventually be worth $1 million, well-known industry numbers. In a string of tweets on November 10, Bobby Lee, who discovered the Chinese cryptocurrency exchange BTC and presently operates a Bitcoin wallet startup, displayed as the freshest voice in the expanding discussion on Bitcoin versus gold. The BTC/USD has formed a bearish engulfing pattern on the hourly chart, which is suggesting the chances of a bearish reversal in the BTC/USD. The pair may continue to face resistance at 9110 levels along with support at 8850 and 8625 today. Support Resistance 8,586.2 9,134.95 8,354.76 9,452.26 7,806.01 10,001.01 Pivot Point 8,903.51 The 8,600 level is now working as the double bottom support for the BTC/USD. We may see further clarity in trend as soon as the BTC/USD violates this range. Below 8,550, the BTCUSD can drop until 8200. While the bullish breakout of 8,836 can lead BTC/USD prices towards 9,113. The euro was broadly flat at $1.1010. Official data reported that the eurozone's industrial production grew 0.1% on month in September (-0.2% expected). Later today, the bloc's third-quarter GDP growth will be reported (+1.1% on-year expected). It should be noted that the movement of the pair depends on the german GDP German gross domestic product (GDP) which is scheduled to release at 07:00 GMT is anticipated to show the economy contracted 0.1% quarter-on-quarter in June to September (Q3) period, having decreased by 0.1% in the first quarter. The annualized GDP is forecasted to release at +0.5% in Q3 against. The previous quarter's reading of +0.4%. However, how could the GDP affect the EUR/USD currency pair? The thing is this if the GDP release in negative figures so then the pair will not be a surprise and will likely strengthen the bearish pressures in the EUR/USD, although the future outlook of the German ZEW survey pointed to some improvement in the outlook for the German economy. Notably, at -2.1, the ZEW Economic Sentiment Index for November exceeded expectations of -13 by a significant margin. The European Commission will release third-quarter GDP (+1.1% on-year expected). The German Federal Statistical Office will post third-quarter GDP (+0.5 on year expected). France's INSEE will report final readings of October CPI (+0.7% on-year expected) and third-quarter jobless rate (8.4% expected).

The chances of a bullish reversal remain pretty solid here. On the upper side, the immediate resistance stays at 1.1050 and 1.1080 later on. But in any case, a bearish breakout of 1.0990 can lead the EUR/USD towards 1.0955 level. The GBP/USD was little changed at $1.2854. Government data showed that U.K. CPI grew 1.5% on year in October (+1.6% expected), and core CPI was up 1.7% (as expected). The U.K. Office for National Statistics will release October retail sales (+3.7% on-year expected). At the Sino-US trade front, the uncertainty surrounding the United States and China trade deal getting more darker after the formers transit in Taiwan waters. As well as, the report came from the Wall Street Journal that the United States and China hit a snag over farm purchases. President Trump recently said that China perpetrated buying up to $50 billion in U.S. soybeans and other agricultural goods as a portion of a phase one trade deal. But China is unwilling to quantify its farm purchases now, as in result instantly activated a risk-off sentiment in the American markets that destroyed the Wall Street party. At the Hong Kong front, the Hong Kong civil unrest and violence take the worst turn for the 4th-straight day on Thursday, after the police reported that a man dressed in black and aged in his 30s died. Lastly, the U.S. Labor Department will post October PPI (+0.9% on-year expected), and initial jobless claims in the week ended November 9 (215,000 expected). Support Resistance 1.2754 1.281 1.2732 1.2845 1.2676 1.2901 Pivot Point 1.2789 The GBP/USD continues to trade in the narrow range of 1.2850 - 1.2835. On the hourly chart, the GBP/USD has formed a symmetric triangle pattern, which can trigger a breakout in either direction. Therefore, the British Retail Sales data today carry importance for the breakout. At the moment, the Cable is gaining support around 1.2830, and above this, a bullish trend can extend buying until 1.2870. Whereas, a bearish breakout of 1.2835 can lead GBP/USD towards 1.2800 and 1.2786. All the best for today.
