In Friday's session, the EUR/GBP pair was seen at 0.8560 after a downward rally of 0.70%. On the daily and four-hour chart, the cross reached oversold conditions suggesting that an upwards correction may be on the horizon, but the overall trend currently favours the sellers.

The pair's position beneath the 20, 100 and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) underscores the dominant downward trend. In addition, the rising red bars of the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) concur with this downward outlook, reinforcing the influence of bearish pressure while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is navigated into oversold territory, a sign typically associated with selling saturation which tends to be followed by an upwards correction.
Examining the four-hour chart on the shorter time frame presents similar bearish signals. The pair shows signs of oversold conditions, as evidenced by the Relative Strength Index (RSI). while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) prints rising red bars.
Support Levels: 0.8530, 0.8515, 0.8500.
Resistance Levels: 0.8600, 0.8630, 0.8670.
