EURGBP TECHS: Approaching The 50-Day EMA

Jan-29 19:00
  • RES 4: 0.8545 High Aug 21  
  • RES 3: 0.8530 76.4% retracement of the Aug 8 - Dec 19 downleg 
  • RES 2: 0.8494 High Aug 26 ‘24
  • RES 1: 0.8421/8474 High Jan 27 / 20 and the bull trigger 
  • PRICE: 0.8380 @ 08:11 GMT Jan 29
  • SUP 1: 0.8364 Low Jan 29
  • SUP 2: 0.8357 50-day EMA
  • SUP 3: 0.8284 Low Jan 8
  • SUP 4: 0.8263 Low Dec 31

EURGBP continues to trade lower this week, extending the correction that started on Jan 20. A bull cycle is intact and moving average studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant short-term uptrend. The 20-day EMA at 0.8387 has been breached and this exposes 0.8357, the 50-day EMA. A clear breach of this EMA would highlight a stronger reversal. The bull trigger is 0.8474, the Jan 20 high. A break of it would resume the uptrend.

EURGBP TECHS: Monitoring Resistance At The 50-Day EMA

Dec-30 19:00
  • RES 4: 0.8448 High Oct 31 and reversal trigger
  • RES 3: 0.8376 High Nov 19 and a bull trigger 
  • RES 2: 0.8356 High Nov 27
  • RES 1: 0.8317/29 50-day EMA / High Dec 27 
  • PRICE: 0.8297 @ 16:09 GMT Dec 30
  • SUP 1: 0.8223 Low Dec 19
  • SUP 2: 0.8203 Low Mar 7 2022 and a major support 
  • SUP 3: 0.8200 Round number support
  • SUP 4: 0.8188 1.00 proj of the Oct 31 - Nov 11 - 19 price swing

EURGBP is holding on to the bulk of its recent gains. Resistance at 0.8317, the 50-day EMA, has been pierced - but failed to trigger a sharper move higher. A clear breach of the EMA would undermine the bear theme and highlight a stronger reversal. A resumption of the primary downtrend would pave the way for a move towards major support at 0.8203, the Mar 7 ‘22 low and the lowest point of a multi-year range.
