EUR/GBP Weekly Candlestick Chart. Price action currently residing around the 61.8% retracement level taken from the October 2008 to December 2008 up move. The weekly close last Friday was the lowest for the year so far and it was also a close below the 61.8% retracement level which overall makes this market look negative.

With price action above the 0.8500 level the potential for a return move to the upside remains technically viable as long as the 0.8470 and 0.8445 levels remain intact. These levels were broken on Friday and Monday (yesterday hitting my stops) but the price action quickly recovered resulting in a daily close back above these levels. As a result of yesterday’s bounce there is now a hammer candlestick on the daily chart pushing the market higher.

The bias for the next move of decent size remains to the upside with dips towards 0.85(00) as opportunities to add to long positions. Returning to the 0.8475 levels would be disconcerting but only below 0.8445 does the towel get thrown in again!
