Personal opinions today:
 
The UK fell to a 20-month low and the euro was dragged down. The Brexit vote in the United Kingdom has no voting time. The UK may face the risk of hard Brexit in March next year. The market refers to the impact and impact on the UK financial industry and financial derivatives. In addition, British Prime Minister Teresa May, who was judged by Congress, will face the risk of impeachment and downfall. All kinds of bad news, offsetting the good data of yesterday's UK job report and the weak US data, the pound fell again to below 1.2505. If the Brexit situation has not improved, the mood continues to be pessimistic, and the UK's hard Brexit situation may cause the pound to fall more than once, and test the level of 1.21 to 1.20. Of course, some bad news has already appeared, and the pound has also fallen a lot, or it is possible to adjust the rebound.
 
The market is watching the US CPl that important inflation data for November tonight. The data is currently estimated to fall from last month. It is expected to fall, and the short-term can make the dollar fall. If the result eventually falls, it may affect the future Fed interest rate decision and attitude. In addition, the number of US jobless claims and retail sales announced later was also noted.
 
It is worth noting the European Central Bank's monetary policy resolution tomorrow night. The market is watching whether the European Central Bank's monetary policy has changed, ending the bond purchase plan, and implementing the rate hike time. Please pay attention to the performance and development of the euro.

Technically, Euro resistance levels 1.1375 and 1.1390 ​​continue to pay attention. If the risk of Brexit dragged down the pound, it could cause the euro to break below the 1.1300 support level.
