Market positioning for a stronger NFP reading - Westpac
Market positioning for US Aug non-farm payrolls is likely to be for a stronger reading than economists’ consensus of 130K, given the better ADP survey and also the non-manufacturing ISM, says Sean Callow, currency strategist at Westpac. The bank forecast is gloomier, "looking for 80K after the surprisingly firm 163K in July. The market range is 70-185K."
London session ahead will be focused on key data coming from the US at 12:30 GMT in the form of NFP. But earlier will come a bunch of other minor EUR related data, starting with German current account and trade balance at 06:00 GMT (all times GMT), followed by French trade balance 45 minutes later, Spanish industrial production at 07:00, the Netherlands industrial production half hour later, Greece final 2Q GDP at 09:00, and German industrial production and Portugal final 2Q GDP both at 10:00.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
GBPUSD bounced on the Mario Draghi’s commentary yesterday. Next portion of macroeconomic data release from UK is expected today at 08:30 GMT - Manufacturing Production. Our main scenario remains unchanged, GBPUSD at the moment deviate from its up-trend on the short term timeframe. Next resistance is maintained at 1.5943 (R1), break here might open space for a move to test targets at 1.5975 (R2) and 1.6003 (R3) in potential. However on the medium term, market is overbought and correction is possible from current levels. Decrease below the support at 1.5917 (S1) might expose next targets at 1.5889 (S2) and 1.5860 (S3).

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
The USD rose yesterday versus the JPY, turning hourly sentiment to the positive territory and exposed our final target at 78.92. Next resistance ahead at is placed at yesterday high- 79.03 (R1), brake here is required to open way for further appreciation towards to 79.22 (R2) and 79.42 (R3). On the downturn, price decline below the next support levels at 78.77 (S1) might trigger bearish pressure and enable next target at 78.58 (S2). A break below it would suggest last target for today at 78.38 (S3).
