The negative outlook remains, RSI and MACD suggest bearish momentum.
The multiple rejections by the 20-day SMA suggest that the buyer’s traction is too weak.

In Friday's session, the EUR/GBP pair fell slightly by 0.15% to 0.8435, showcasing a negative technical outlook. Bears continue to drive the pair lower, reinforcing the overall bearish trend while buyers continue to struggle to conquer the 20-day Simple Moving Average..

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 44, within negative territory, with a mildly declining slope, signifying weakening buying momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram is displaying decreasing red bars, indicating a decline in selling pressure. This mixed outlook suggests that the selling forces are steady while buying force is losing momentum.

The EUR/GBP pair has been consolidating within a narrow range for the past few trading sessions, fluctuating between 0.8425 and 0.8450. This consolidation is indicative of a lack of clear directional bias in the near term. If the pair manages to break below the immediate support level of 0.8425, it could potentially target 0.8410 and 0.8400. Conversely, a break above 0.8450 (20-day SMA)could open up further upside potential above 0.8470.
