EUR/GBP daily chart
The EUR/GBP pair has been consolidating within a narrow range for the past few trading sessions, fluctuating between 0.8420 and 0.8450. This consolidation is indicative of a lack of clear directional bias in the near term. If the pair manages to break above the immediate resistance level of 0.8450 (20-day SMA), it could potentially target 0.8460 and 0.8470. Conversely, a break below 0.8420 could open up further downside potential below 08400.
