The Consumer Prices Index including owner occupiers\u2019 housing costs (CPIH) rose by 1.0% in the 12 months to March 2021, up from 0.7% in February. With rising prices for motor fuels and clothing contributing the most to the upward change in the CPIH year-on-year rate between February and March 2021. However, the GBPUSD was initially stronger at the London session open as traders took the rise in Core CPI as a positive that inflation is likely to pick up the further the COVID-19 restrictions ease. Pubs across the UK are opening up and retail stores will be opening their doors, so the coming months will show whether there has been a pent-up demand building and how confident the UK is at bouncing back fully.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ffe613b elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ffe613b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6c1ba5f\" data-id=\"6c1ba5f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-09977b3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"09977b3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/UK-Core-Inflation.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-6789\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-367ce90 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"367ce90\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-12f9dbd\" data-id=\"12f9dbd\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0e1ffe elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d0e1ffe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>The pound has traded back to the 60-period exponential moving average (EMA) on the hourly time frame, which is now acting as support. If buyers do step in at 1.3930 the strong momentum shown on the higher time frames would lead us back to the recent highs but if this level fails to find further support, the worry for pound bulls is the speed at which the pair appreciated against the dollar from 1.3730. Meaning we could as quickly drop back to the previous consolidation levels and test for buyers below the stops that would inevitably get run around the 1.3685-1.3690 price
