- The EUR/GBP rose to 0.8450 aiming for the 20-day SMA
- The RSI and MACD are projecting that buying pressure is increasing.
- If the buyers regain the 20-day SMA, the outlook will improve.
In Tuesday's session, the EUR/GBP rose by 0.28% to 0.8450 and extended its sideways trading range tracking the narrow-range movements of the past sessions. A break above the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) which convergences at 0.8450, would confirm a break of the side-ways movements.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI), currently at 50, indicates that the pair is in neutral territory, while the RSI slope is rising sharply, suggesting that buying pressure is recovering. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) shows a green histogram with rising bars, revealing that buying pressure is increasing. Combining these technical indicators suggests that bulls are regaining some control.
EUR/GBP daily chart
The EUR/GBP pair has been consolidating within a narrow range for the last seven sessions, with little upward or downward momentum. Nonetheless, the pair is trading slightly higher at 0.8450 and has traded primarily within the 0.8420-0.8460 range. If the pair breaks above the immediate resistance level of 0.8460, it could potentially target 0.8480 and 0.8500. Conversely, a break below 0.8420 could open up further downside potential below 0.8400 and 0.8380.
