Talking Points:

• EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat

• Support: 0.7081, 0.7045, 0.6987

• Resistance: 0.7140, 0.7187, 0.7235

The Euro gapped sharply lower against the British Pound but swiftly recovered to place prices back within familiar territory. A daily close above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at 0.7140 exposes the 50% level at 0.7187. Alternatively, a move below the 23.6% Fib at 0.7081opens the door for a challenge of the 14.6% retracement at 0.7045.

An actionable trade setup is absent at this point, arguing against committing to a directional bias on long or short side. We will continue to stand aside for now, waiting for a clear-cut trading opportunity to present itself in the days ahead.
