EUR/GBP took another attempt to settle above 0.7950
FXStreet (Moscow) - EUR/GBP opened the day at 0.7937, rose to 0.7970, and retreated to 0.7960 by the moment.
If the market gets message
EUR/GBP had very big desire to rise on the yesterday’s ECB meeting, thus, even the absence of any bad news from Draghi the cross took as a chance to settle above 0.7950. However, the happiness didn’t last long, as the chairman made every attempt to convince the market there is nothing to be happy about, and there is no reason to buy the euro, especially against GBP and USD. Today the history repeated with stronger EMU data helping the euro to recover, and pushing the cross to 0.7970. But will we see the correction back again? If the market got Draghi’s message, another run lower with initial target at 0.7940 pivot point is not ruled out.
