British Pound And Euro Technical Outlook

British Pound Technical Outlook

The British Pound has found a short-term base against the US Dollar, holding highly-contested support near the psychologically significant 1.4700 mark. Its recent price formation likewise looks vaguely like an inverse head and shoulders pattern, and a break above 1.5500 would signal that a more medium term reversal is likely.

Shorter-term, the British Pound looks to challenge previous spike-highs at the psychologically significant 1.5000 mark.

Euro Technical Outlook

The Euro has stalled at significant resistance against the US Dollar, and we see further scope for Euro/US Dollar weakness through upcoming trade. After such dramatic US Dollar declines, we would expect to see similarly sharp corrections. A reversal at the pair’s 61.8 percent Fibonacci retracement of its 1.6040-1.2330 decline and 200-day Simple Moving Average signals further dramatic advances are unlikely.

The very short term shows that the Euro/US Dollar has thus far held short-term intraday lows of 1.3825, but a break below signals that a move towards previous lows near 1.3600 is likely.
