Talking Points:

• EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat
• Support: 0.7174, 0.7124, 0.7061
• Resistance: 0.7225, 0.7287, 0.7326

The Euro resumed its down move against the British Pound, with sellers claiming a foothold below the 0.72 figure. A daily close below the 50% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7174 exposes the 61.8% level at 0.7124. Alternatively, a move above the 38.2% Fib at 0.7225opens the door for a challenge of the 0.7271-87 area (horizontal pivot, 23.6% expansion).

Risk/reward considerations argue against entering long with prices in close proximity to resistance. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bearish reversal signal suggests taking up the short side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for an actionable opportunity to present itself.
