Prior analysis
EUR/GBP, day trade
From a daily perspective, the price is overstretched to the downside so there is scope for a 38.2% Fibo retracement.
The hourly chart will offer bullish conditions on a break of current resistance and a restest will open prospects of support for a buy limit entry to target a 1:2.5 risk to reward setup.
However, ideally, MACD needs to turn positive to confirm the bullish environment.
Live market
The price continued to move sideways and print a lower low of 0.8633.
However, the consolidation is positive for the trade thesis and the conditions are starting to turn less bearish.
MACD is on the approach to positive territory with the 21 moving average now tilting to the upside as price makes a series of higher lows and highs.
1-hour chart
Bulls will seek to engage at a bullish structure once the upside establishes itself with MACD turning positive and the price tests the bear's commitments.
