EUR/GBP surges higher
Last week's EUR/GBP fall to £0.8226, close to the March 2022 low at £0.8204, has been followed by a sharp rally towards the 55-day simple moving average (SMA) at £0.8330. Above it beckons the August-to-December resistance line at £0.8352.
Minor support sits in the £0.8301-to-£0.8296 support zone and further minor support in the £0.8271-to-£0.8260 region.
