EUR/GBP Technical Analysis: Challenges an important confluence support
• Extends overnight rejection slide from the 0.8900 handle and has now dropped to test a short-term ascending trend-channel support, also coinciding with the very important 200-day SMA.
• With short-term technical indicators already losing their positive momentum, a follow-through weakness would negate the bullish formation and open room for further near-term downside.
• Only a sustained move back above 0.8865 horizontal hurdle would revive prospects for a resumption of the prior bullish momentum.
