The labor market report from the United States dispensed a less than expected rise in the number of employed people in August. The unemployment rate persisted stable while average hourly earnings ticked up last month to come in ahead of forecast.

GBP/USD - Fibonacci Retracement In-Play
The GBP/USD pair jumped dramatically to place a high around 1.2385 as investors awaited for the UK GDP figures. After declining in the second quarter, the Sterling is facing pressure on the system.
GDP in the United Kingdom was even for the three months to July and expanded 0.3% every month. The British economic figures remained broadly above forecasts as manufacturing, and industrial production also hit the analyst forecast. The data appears to imply that the British economy is still stronger than expected.
Besides, the Brexit uncertainties will tend to continue dominating Sterling fluctuations. During the previous week, political developments caused volatile deviations in the GBP/USD. Prime Minister Johnson had a significant failure in Parliament as a bill enacted that effectively allows lawmakers to block a no-deal exit. Johnson seems persistent nevertheless to provide a door by October 31. Based on his fresh news, I think he will retaliate. That is the reason why the volatile swings in the currency are far from over.
