Talking Points:

  • EUR/GBP Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support: 0.7222, 0.7153, 0.7052

  • Resistance: 0.7279, 0.7356, 0.7482

The Euro is facing heavy selling pressure as early results from the UK general election send the British Pound broadly higher. A daily close below horizontal pivot support at 0.7222 exposes the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 0.7153. Alternatively, a turn above the 23.6% Fib at 0.7279 opens the door for a challenge of the 14.6% expansion at 0.7356.

Prices are too close to support to justify entering short from a risk/reward perspective. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bullish reversal signal suggests that taking up the long side is premature. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now.
