The news and news background did not have any sharp statistics in itself for the last day, where the dollar was actually weak against the background, but continued to strengthen. Brexit's theme continues to evolve in complete uncertainty; British Prime Minister Theresa May has already managed to respond to earlier remarks from Europe.

It is likely to assume that the downward move will still remain with the primary point 1.1400, where there is a small congestion.

Based on the available data, it is possible to decompose a number of variations, let's consider them:

- Buy positions are considered in several ways : first, in case of loss of bearish interest and return of quotes higher than 1.1440; The second is already in the case of a deceleration within the value of 1.1400 - 1.1350
