EU Session Bullet Report – Markets steady as all eyes on FOMC

Who will raise interest rates first? US or UK?

As the market appears to be certain about the FED NOT increasing the interest rate in July, traders will be analyzing tonights FOMC statement for any hints of an interest rate increase in September.
Yesterday, GBP was not affected during the release of GDP figures as it came out as expected but the Cable gained a little momentum later on, touching the high of 1.5625 which is the first resistance as of now and the second resistance can be seen at 1.5670.

In the US, stocks broke its 4 day losing streak on the back of positive earnings data. EURUSD tried to edge up touching 1.1130 yesterday but the rally was short-lived. Now we are looking at the support at 1.1020 with 1.0995 in extension.

The AUDUSD had a good run yesterday touching a high of 0.7349 but it came under pressure during the Asian session as global stress continues to put pressure on the Aussie which is heavily driven by the commodities.
The Greek stock market is one step closer to reopening after four weeks as the European Central bank accepted trading rules proposals.
