4:30am (NY Time) UK Manufacturing PMI  Forecast 56.3   Previous 56.7
ACTION: GBP/USD        BUY 58.3         SELL 54.3

We’ll be looking forward to trade the Manufacturing PMI number from UK  today and it’s forecasted at 56.3; UK Manufacturing PMI’s medium point is at 50, therefore this forecast is considered as a positive release (above the 50 level means expansion in the manufacturing sector).

We are looking for a tradable deviation (or the difference between the forecast figure and the actual release figure)  of 2.0, and because this is a leading indicator and its impact may affect the future trend of this currency for the remainder of the week or even for the month of March, market should react to this release with volatility should we get out deviation.  We can expect GBP/USD to move 50 pips within the hour if you deviation is hit.
