EUR/GBP off lows as stocks turn red
FXStreet (Mumbai) - The EUR/GBP pair recovered slightly from its daily low as stock markets in Europe turned red, thereby pushing the US index futures lower.
EUR bid in the US session
The bid tone on the EUR improved in the early US session in line with the recovery in other funding and safe haven assets. Moreover, the losses in the commodity prices eventually weighed over the European stock markets and pushed the S&P futures lower by 0.4%.
However, the recovery is extremely weak as German 10-yr yields pared gains. The pair now trades around 0.7324, compared to the European session low of 0.7305 levels.
EUR/GBP Technical Levels
The immediate support is seen at 0.7301 (50-DMA), under which the pair could test 0.7278 (38.2% of 0.6930-0.7492). On the other side, resistance is seen at 0.7333 (Oct 7 low) and 0.7360 (23.6% of 0.6930-0.7492).
