EUR/GBP Technical analysis: Testing 5-week rising trendline

EUR/GBP is currently trading just above the support of the trendline connecting the Nov. 13 and Dec. 7 lows.
Acceptance below that trendline would imply that the rally from the Nov. 13 low of 0.8656 has ended. A bearish reversal, however, would be confirmed, if and when, the pair violates the higher low pattern with a move below 0.8952.
On the higher side, a strong bounce from the ascending trendline could end up recharging engines for a re-test of the recent high of 0.9087.
The key MAs - 50, 100 and 200 - are trending north and are located one above the other. So, the pair is more likely to see a strong bounce from the ascending trendline support.
