EUR/GBP dips further, testing 0.7700
The now increasing buying interest around the British pound is sending EUR/GBP lower to test the vicinity of the 0.7700 handle.
EUR/GBP stronger post-UK data, NIESR eyed
The risk-on trade continues to grow bigger during the European afternoon, sustaining the upside momentum around GBP and adding further downside pressure to EUR,
In addition, mixed results from UK’s Industrial Production and Manufacturing Production during January have underpinned today’s bullish bias around the sterling and thus collaborating with the daily decline in the cross, all amidst dwindling concerns around ‘Brexit’, at least for the time being.
EUR/GBP key levels
The European cross is now down 0.48% at 0.7707 and a breakdown of 0.7693 (38.2% Fibo of 0.7310-0.7931) would open the door to 0.7688 (low Mar.2) and finally 0.7633 (55-day sma). On the other hand, the next hurdle lines up at 0.7785 (20-day sma) ahead of 0.7931 (high Feb.25) and then 0.7977 (high Dec.1 2014).
