EUR/GBP Technical Analysis: Euro in a tight range below 0.8800 level as bulls await potential  breakout


  • EUR/GBP is in a bear trend below the 100 and 200-period simple moving average.
  • The market is trying to create a bottom above the 0.8700 figure as bulls are defending the 50 SMA. The RSI, MACD and Stochastic indicators are ticking up but a breakout above the 0.8800 figure and the bear trendline is what bulls need to open the doors to 0.8900 figure.
  • On the flip side, in the absence of the bullish breakout, the market is set to continue to trade down.
