​​​EUR/USD tries to break through key resistance

EUR/USD is still trying to break through its major $1.0461 to $1.0533 resistance area which needs to be overcome, for a medium-term bullish reversal to be confirmed.

Minor support remains to be seen at last week's $1.0401 low and along the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at $1.0394 as well as at the 23 January low at $1.0372.

​EUR/GBP recovers

EUR/GBP gradually bounces off its late December low at £0.8264. The 10 February low at £0.8310 and the 55-day SMA at £0.8330 remain in sight. Further up lies last week's £0.8352 high.

A fall through £0.8264 would put the December low at £0.8223 on the cards.
