GBP/USD attracts some buyers following the previous day's two-way directionless price move and holds steady above the 1.3300 mark in European trading on Tuesday. The pair, however, lacks strong follow-through buying as traders opt to wait on the sidelines ahead of US employment data. 

Gold trades with a negative bias for the third straight day and drops to a one-week low, around the $4,170 region, during the early European session. The downtick lacks any obvious fundamental catalyst and could be attributed to some repositioning trade ahead of the highly anticipated FOMC policy meeting. Investors will keep a close eye on updated economic projections.
