EUR/GBP is attempting a recovery with all eyes on ECB Lagarde’s speech

• EUR/GBP recocvvery loses steam rightbelow 0.8600.
• Weak Eurozone sentiment and dovish comments fron ECB's De Guindos are weighing on the pair.
• All eyes now are on ECB's Lagaarde's speech.

The Euro has trimmed some losses during Monday’s Asian session with investors taking profits after having depreciated more than 2% in the last two weeks.

The pair however, seems to be losing upside traction during the European session, as weaker-than-expected investors’ confidence data in the Eurozone and the dovish comments by ECB’s De Guindos have acted as headwinds for the Euro.

ECB Lagarde's comments will attract the attention on Monday

The highlight of the day, however, will be ECB President Lagarde’s speech, at 14:00 GMT. In light of the recent decline in inflation, investors will be looking for dovish hints that might resume the pair’s downtrend.

From a technical perspective, the pair seems ready for an upside correction after reaching oversold levels on daily and intra-day charts.

On the upside, immediate resistance lies at 0.8580, which closes the path to a strong resistance area between 0.8600 and 0.8620. Supports are  0.8550 and 0.8500
