  • Norway's industrial confidence indicator declined to 2.5 in the third quarter, the weakest since the March quarter 2017, from a downwardly revised 5.1 in the previous period.
     
  • USD/NOK trades 0.3 percent down at 9.1306, having touched a record high of 9.2107 on Thursday.
     
  • Momentum indicators are bearish on hourly charts - RSI is weak at 30.73, MACD support downside and Stochs are biased lower.
     
  • Immediate resistance is located at 9.1815 and a close above could take it till 9.2050.
     
  • On the downside, support is around 9.1070 (20-EMA), break below could take it till 9.0824.
