EUR/GBP technical analysis: Buyers again aim for 61.8% Fibo. amid overbought RSI

  • Overbought RSI can again question optimists around 61.8% Fibonacci retracement.
  • 200-day SMA offers strong downside support.

Despite failing to clear 61.8% Fibonacci retracement during late-Friday, EUR/GBP again aims to conquer the upside barrier as it trades near 0.8840 while heading into the European open on Monday.

Should prices clear 0.8875 resistance comprising 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of January – March downturn, December 25 bottom around 0.8900 becomes the key for buyers.

Additionally, pair’s ability to cross 0.8900 enables it to challenge 0.8945/50 and mid-January highs surrounding 0.9000 mark.

Meanwhile, 50% Fibonacci retracement level near 0.8800 and 0.8785 figure encompassing 200-day simple moving average (SMA) can entertain sellers during the pullback.

However, 0.8720 and 100-day SMA level of 0.8672 might trigger the pair’s U-turn past-0.8785.

It’s worth noting down that 14-day relative strength index (RSI) is near the overbought area indicating brighter chances of a price pullback.
