• Private-sector employment increased by 38,000 jobs in August, following a revised 46,000 gain in July, according to the ADP National Employment Report..

• The rand gained some support as risk appetite improved, with the currency sensitive to global sentiment and U.S. economic and monetary policy.

•Investor attention will remain on the U.S., with additional labour ​market data due before the end of ​the ⁠week.

• Immediate resistance is located at 16.118(SMA20), any close above will push the pair towards 16.230(38.2%fib).

• Strong support is seen at 15.920(Lower BB) and break below could take the pair towards 15.864(23.6%fib).
