•Markets are pricing in about a 53% chance of another rate hike at the Fed's October meeting, per CME ​Group's FedWatch tool.

•On Thursday, oil prices eased as Saudi ‌Arabia's ⁠supplies calmed concerns, though prices remained above $100 a barrel due to fears of a wider Middle East conflict..

           
•  Immediate resistance is located at 1.3988(Higher BB), any close above will push the pair towards 1.4065 (38.2%fib.).
