EURGBP is trading closer to recent highs. Last week, the cross moved back above both the 20- and 50-day EMAs. The move higher signals scope for further gains near-term with the focus on the 100-dma next at 0.8593 and tested Monday. Gains are still considered corrective though and from a trend perspective, the outlook is bearish. A return lower and a break of initial firm support at 0.8506, Aug 19 low would signal a resumption of bearish pressure.
