EURGBP continues to trade in a range. Key short-term resistance is at 0.8588, the Jul 30 high. A clear break of it would suggest scope for a stronger corrective bull theme and highlight a clear breach of the 50-day EMA, at 0.8570. This would open 0.8601, a Fibonacci retracement. Note that medium-term trend signals still highlight a dominant downtrend. Initial firm support to watch is 0.8532, the Aug 12 low. Clearance of it would be bearish.
