EUR/GBP Ranging Ahead of Key Event Release

Following three consecutive days of decline, the EURGBP pair is trading in a narrow range with little change from yesterday's close ahead of the release of UK monthly retail sales data and ECB monetary policy announcement later during the day.

EURGBP descending trend-channel suggest further downside

On H4, the pair has been oscillating within a descending trend-channel formation. Hence, a follow through selling pressure below 0.7875 immediate horizontal support, is likely to continue exerting pressure on the pair. Below 0.7875, the pair is likely to drift lower towards testing the trend-channel support, currently near 0.7825.

Meanwhile on the upside, a move beyond day's trading range high (0.7890 level) should lift the pair immediately towards 0.7900 mark. Sustained move above 0.7900 mark has the potential to lift the pair back towards the trend-channel resistance, currently pegged near 0.7935 region.
