Technical outlook on EUR/GBP

Jynske Bank Team suggest that “We recommend that investors place a sell order at 86.20 to catch EURGBP before the next weakening phase begins. In the short term, EURGBP trades in oversold territory, and therefore we expect that in the short term EURGBP will trade back towards the 86.30-86.90 range. No important fundamentals will be announced in the UK this week. We still expect that GBP will strengthen over the coming 3, 6 and 12 months”. The FXstreet.com Trend Index shows the pair to be strongly bearish. Daily pivot point support can be found at 0.8498, 0.8520, 0.8541 and resistance at 0.8600, 0.8622, 0.9257, respectively.
