EUR/GBP en route for Sep lows?

  • EUR/GBP offers are testing 0.8770.
  • BoE supporting, for now.

Currently, EUR/GBP is trading at 0.8783, down -0.43% on the day, having posted a daily high at 0.8826 and low at 0.8778. EUR/GBP is chipping away below the 0.88 handle while EUR crosses have been mixed overnight due to the data that saw EZ CPI softer but GDP and jobless looking better.

"A dovish hike by theBOE, or no hike, for that matter, could send sterling back toward $1.30 for a more significant challenge.  On the other hand, a broader dollar pullback and hawkish comments or forecasts could see sterling challenge $1.3350-$1.3400," explained analysts at Brown Brothers Harriman. 

EUR/GBP levels

"The 2015-2017 uptrend at 0.8821 has been eroded and attention has reverted to the major band of support, which extends down to 0.8723/56, the July and September lows, the 200 day and 55-week ma. Below 0.8723 would target the 0.8530/78.6% retracement of the move seen this year," analysts at Commerzbank argued.
