The Euro lost bullish momentum having rallied decisively against the British Pound in recent months, breaking below rising trend line support that has held up the pair since late October. Prices found initial support above the 0.88 level near the January’s swing low and bounced higher to re-test support-turned-resistance, offering compelling risk/reward parameters for a short position. That said, we do see confirmation of a bearish as yet, so selling EURGBP immediately would be premature. We will monitor the pair in the coming days looking to verify that the retracement has run its course and enter short, aiming for a break past 0.88 to challenge November’s swing high at 0.8669.
