GBP outperforms on industrial production data

"Trade and industrial production both surprised to the upside in August, offering a positive offset to the disappointing employment figures released earlier this week. Sentiment remains a dominant driver for GBP and spread correlations are weak, with markets focused on fiscal developments and the need for a larger buffer into the November 26 budget release."

"Tthe RSI is at 50 and the GBP’s latest recovery is threatening a break of the 50 day MA at 1.3476. We see limited resistance ahead of 1.35 and look to a near-term range bound between 1.3380 and 1.3480."
