Talking Points:

  • EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 0.7422, 0.7368, 0.7280
  • Resistance: 0.7491, 0.7545, 0.7633

The Euro may have formed a bottom against the British Pound following the formation of a Bullish Engulfing candlestick pattern. A daily close above the 14.6% Fibonacci retracement at 0.7491 exposes the 23.6% level at 0.7545. Alternatively, a turn below the 14.6% Fib expansion at 0.7422 opens the door for a challenge of the 23.6% threshold at 0.7368.

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 long side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for a more actionable opportunity to present itself.
