EUR/GBP Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The EUR/GBP has extended its losses below the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 0.8422, which has opened the door to test challenge lower prices, but bulls are stepping in around the 0.8400 figure.
The relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish, though it has turned flat, an indication that the cross might consolidate, before resuming its ongoing uptrend.
For a bullish continuation, buyers must crack the 200-day SMA. If cleared, the next stop will be the January 24 daily high at 0.8462, ahead of the next cycle high at 0.8473 the January 20 peak.
On the other hand, if sellers push prices below the 0.8400 figure, the next support would be the latest pivot low of 0.8383 the January 14 low, followed by the 100-day SMA at 0.8347.
