EUR/GBP Daily Chart
It is possible the bearish bias evident during the steep fall in August is reaserting itself. A break below 0.8419 would provide confirmation of further downside toward a target at 0.8406, the 0.618 Fib extension of the height of the rising channel lower. Below that it is possible prices could fall to support at 0.8385.
Alternatively, it is still possible – though unlikely – that the break proves false. If so, price could recover back inside the shallow rising channel and extend, with circa 0.8460 as a possible upside target thereafter.
