EUR/GBP Technical Analysis: Set-up points to an extension of the declining trend

   “¢   The cross has been trending lower alongside a downward sloping channel and remained under some selling pressure for the fifth consecutive session on Friday.

   “¢   The fact that it remains well below important intraday moving averages – 50, 100 & 200-hour SMAs support prospects an extension of the ongoing downward trajectory.  

   “¢   Technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have been gradually gaining negative momentum and add credence to the near-term negative outlook amid concerns over Italy’s budget proposal.

   “¢   Today’s macroeconomic releases – the flash EZ CPI, the final GDP growth figures and current account deficit figures from the UK, will now be looked upon for some fresh impetus.
