Talking Points:

• EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat

• Support: 0.7145, 0.7102, 0.7060

• Resistance: 0.7197, 0.7230, 0.7282

The Euro declined against the British Pound as expected after putting in a Bearish Engulfing candlestick pattern. A daily close below the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7145 exposes the 50% level at 0.7102. Alternatively, a turn above the 23.6% Fib at 0.7197 opens the door for a challenge of the 14.6% expansion at 0.7230.

The available trading range is too narrow to justify entering a trade on the long or short side from a risk/reward perspective. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now, waiting for price action to offer a more compelling opportunity down the road.
