EUR/GBP dropped further to as low as 0.8763 last week after taking out 0.8927 support. A temporary low is formed and initial bias is turned neutral this week. Further decline is expected as long as 0.8927 support turned resistance holds. Below 0.8763 will target 0.8620/55 support zone. We’d expect strong support from there to bring near term reversal.
In the bigger picture, EUR/GBP is seen as staying in long term range pattern started at 0.9304 (2016 high). The medium term range is set between 0.8620 and 0.9101. Downside break out of 0.8620 will pave the way back to 0.8302/12 support zone. Break of 0.9101 will bring retest of 0.9304/5 resistance.
In the long term picture, we’re holding on to the view that rise from 0.6935 (2015 low) is resuming the up trend from 0.5680 (2000 low). Hence, after the consolidation from 0.9304 completes, we’d expect another medium term up trend through 0.9799 to 100% projection of 0.5680 to 0.9799 from 0.6935 at 1.1054.
