CABLE: The USD consolidated gains post-Fed in early Asia, GBPUSD extended its

corrective pullback through $1.3100 with the downtrend spilling over into

Europe. Rate moved through support from the 100-dma to $1.3012 and holds heavy.

Next support is seen at $1.2992/90 which represents the 38.2% retracement of

$1.2696-1.3175 & 21-dma. EURGBP printed Gbp0.8691, but failed to take out

yesterday's low. The cross staged a minor recovery back above Gbp0.8700, however

the recent downtrend remains intact with bears targeting the ytd low at

Gbp0.8621. Key focus today on the raft of UK data at 0930GMT. GDP is the main

highlight and the MNI median points to Q3 GDP growing by 0.6%, however signs of

a calming in the UK economy are apparent. After flat m/m growth in August,

analysts anticipate growth of just 0.1% m/m growth in September - with risks

tilted to the downside. Trade Balance, Index of Services, Mfg & Industrial

Production also due up. Markets could again be light and choppy with many

traders squaring positions ahead of the weekend press and impending Brexit

reports.
