EURGBP trend conditions remain bullish, with prices reverting higher on the back of the UK CPI release. Wednesday saw the first higher close in eight sessions for the cross, helping partially reverse a large part of the modest pullback. The recent clearance of 0.8897, the Jan 13 high, confirmed a resumption of the uptrend that started early December and sights are on 0.8992, a Fibonacci retracement. Moving average studies remain in a bull-mode position, highlighting an uptrend. First support to watch lies at 0.8798, the 50-day EMA.
