EUR and GBP medium-impact data before London open

Watch out for
- 07:00 has EUR and GBP data at the same time, so avoid reading the first spike as confirmation.
- For GBP/USD, treat the Halifax monthly and yearly prints together rather than reacting to one line alone.
- For EUR/USD, watch whether price holds or rejects key H1 levels after the 07:00 and 07:45 releases.
- USD/JPY and XAU/USD have no direct event in this window, so focus on price structure unless broad USD flows appear.
- If spreads widen around the releases, reduce execution pressure and wait for cleaner candles.
Can safely ignore
- No low-impact calendar noise is listed for this window.
