EUR/GBP flirts with 50-DMA
FXStreet (Mumbai) - The EUR/GBP pair is flirting with the 50-DMA located at 0.7895 levels after the German industrial production data printed lower than market expectations.
The pair is trading 0.19% higher for the day, although it seems to have a hard time extending gains above the 50-DMA level. The EUR managed to touch 0.7899 levels after the German Industrial Production data came-in at 0.8% year-on-year in October, compared to the September’s upwardly revised 0.1%. The rise in Industrial activity helped the EUR gain strength, although broader gains remain capped due to pessimism regarding German economy after the Bundesbank revised lower, its growth forecasts for the current as well as the next year.
EUR/GBP Technical Levels
The pair has an immediate resistance at 0.7917 (100-DMA), above which another resistance is seen at 0.724 levels. Meanwhile, failure to rise above the 50-DMA located at 0.7895 may push the pair down to 0.7865 levels.
