  • EUR/GBP slid through the 0.8900 support and bears are now eyeing 0.8868, 13 July high. The 0.8900 level becomes now resistance for upside moves.  
  • The move lower on EUR/GBP was triggered by UK Prime Minister Theresa May announcing that she would take control of the Brexit negotiations while Parliament now takes a six-week summer recess which could give rise to a lift in the pound in the absence of further Brexit headlines.
  • EUR/GBP is trading below its three main simple moving averages (50, 100 and 200) suggesting that the bias has switched to bearish for the time being.
