EUR/GBP Technical Analysis: struggle to conquer 200-DMA barrier continues
• The cross continued with its struggle to make it through the very important 200-day SMA, with upbeat UK monthly retail sales data prompting some fresh selling.
• A follow-through weakness below a confluence support would negate prospects for any near-term up-move and pave the way for further downside.
• Neutral technical indicators have failed to confirm any firm directional bias and hence, it would be prudent to wait for a decisive break before positioning for near-term trajectory.
