• Range Support Sits at .7864
• Range Reversals Triggered Under .7808

EURGBP 30min Chart


Traders looking to avoid the volatility of this morning’s NFP event, can set their sights on currency crosses such as the EURGBP. Thia pair remained quiet, despite the rest of the market’s volatility, and has maintained its 38 pip trading range. Currently price has bounced off of range support, found at the R3 pivot depicted above. This will allow reversal traders to target the R3 line of resistance at .7864, in the event that price stays range bound.

If price moves out of the marked trading range, traders can begin positioning for a breakout. A drop below the S4 pivot, at a price of .7808, would signal the creation of a lower low and a move back in the direction of the daily trend. A move above R4 resistance at .7882 would create a bullish bias on the EURGBP on a break to new high highs. In either breakout scenario, traders should consider concluding any range bound positioning and trading with the markets new found momentum.
