Talking Points:
- EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat
- Support: 0.7319, 0.7268, 0.7218
- Resistance: 0.7381, 0.7482, 0.7556
The Euro moved higher against the British Pound as expected after putting in a Bullish Engulfing candlestick pattern. Near-term resistance is at 0.7381, the 76.4% Fibonacci retracement, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the May 7 high at 0.7482. Alternatively, a reversal below the 61.8% Fib at 0.7319 clears the way for a test of the 50% retracement at 0.7268.
Prices are wedged too closely between near-term support and resistance levels to justify taking a trade on a long or short side from a risk/reward perspective. With that in mind, we will continue to stand aside until a more attractive opportunity presents itself.
