EUR/GBP Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The EUR/GBP daily chat portrays the pair in sideways action, within the 0.8500/0.8550 for the fifth consecutive day, though Euro (EUR) weakness triggered a fall to crack year-to-date (YTD) lows of 0.8504 and bounced towards the 0.8520 area. Sellers could extend the cross fall once they reclaim 0.8500. In that outcome, the EUR/GBP’s next support would be last year’s August 22 low at 0.8408. Conversely, the EUR/GBP could shift upwards if it reclaims 0.8600.

In the short term, the EUR/GBP hourly chart portrays a bearish continuation, as the intersection of the 50-hour Moving Average (HMA) with the daily pivot point at 0.8522/26 would be challenging to overcome. In addition, the downslope resistance trendline passes around 0.8540. If EUR/GBP breaks above those levels, the next resistance would be the 100-HMA at 0.8533, followed by the R1 pivot at 0.8537. Contrarily, and on the path of least resistance, the EUR/GBP’s first support would be the YTD low of 0.8504. Once cleared, the next support would be the S2 pivot at 0.8494, followed by the S3 daily pivot point at 0.8475
