EUR/GBP, “Euro vs Great Britain Pound”

EURGBP is trading at 0.8952; the instrument is moving inside Ichimoku Cloud, thus indicating a sideways tendency. The markets could indicate that the price may test the cloud’s downside border at 0.8940 and then resume moving upwards to reach 0.9095. Another signal in favor of further uptrend will be a rebound from the support level. However, the bullish scenario may be canceled if the price breaks the cloud’s downside border and fixes below 0.8905. In this case, the pair may continue falling towards 0.8810. To confirm further growth, the asset must break the descending channel’s upside border and fix above 0.9005, thus indicating the completion of a Head & Shoulders reversal pattern.
