Fundamental view
United Kingdom
The gauge of industrial orders in the United Kingdom probably climbed to a reading of 8 during the three months through July from 11 during the preceding period. This indicator reflects the net balance between companies, that registered an increase in industrial orders during the respective period of three months and those, that registered a drop.
It is the oldest indicator, released from the UK private sector, to show the development tendency in country’s industrial sector. The Confederation of British Industry (CBI) will announce the results of its survey, encompassing 17 industries, at 10:00 GMT.
In case, the industrial orders index fell less than expected, this will heighten the appeal of the pound.

According to Binary Tribune’s daily analysis, the central pivot point for the pair is at 1.9648.
