Data on the European manufacturing sector came out worse than the preliminary estimate. The index fell during the period of September from 49.6 to 48.4, despite the expected decline to 48.5 points.

Meanwhile, the United States manufacturing PMI rose to 52.0 from 51.5, with forecast growth of 51.8.
There was no market reaction to the statistical data for the reason that all the attention of traders was focused on the information and news flow.
So the leverage for speculators was the rumor that the UK intends to cancel the plan to reduce the tax rate from 45% to 40%. This rumor was subsequently confirmed by UK Finance Minister Kwasi Kwarteng via Twitter.
"We get it, and we have listened," he wrote.
Based on this information, there was speculative interest in the position of the pound sterling, which locally jumped in value by 180 points, pulling the euro along with it.
The EURUSD currency pair, during the corrective movement, reached the resistance level of 0.9850, relative to which there was a reduction in the volume of long positions on the euro. As a result, there was a rebound in the market, which eventually turned into stagnation within the 0.9750/0.9850 range.
The GBP/USD currency pair continued to form a corrective move from the local low of the downward trend. As a result, in about a week, the British currency recovered its value by 10%, which is more than 1,000 points.
Today, the euro may receive support from buyers as producer prices in the EU may accelerate from 37.9% to 43.6%. That is, with such data, inflation in Europe will continue to grow, which will lead to further tightening of the ECB's monetary policy. That is, interest rates will continue to rise.

With the opening of European platforms, a breakdown of the upper limit of stagnation occurred. This step led to the prolongation of the corrective move in the market. A stable hold of the price above 0.9850 may eventually lead to a move towards parity.
Despite such impressive price changes, which herald a technical overbought signal, the pound still has an upside margin. For this reason, holding the price above the level of 1.1410 in a four-hour period may lead to a subsequent increase in the volume of long positions. This process will lead to the prolongation of the current cycle.
If the level area of 1.1410 has a proper impact on sellers, then the first thing that will occur is a slowdown, relative to which a reverse price movement will be considered.
