EUR/GBP hovering over 0.7200
FXStreet (Edinburgh) - The softer tone in both the sterling and the euro are driving EUR/GBP to the vicinity of the key support at 0.7200 on Monday.
EUR/GBP attention to Greece, risk
The pair continues to extend the overnight sideline pattern around the 0.7200 handle, with developments from Greece and the risk appetite trends as the main catalysts for the price action.
There are no relevant releases during the first half of the week in the euro area and the British economy, although flash prints for manufacturing and services PMIs and the BoE minutes in the upcoming sessions will surely bring in volatility to the cross.
EUR/GBP relevant levels
At the moment the cross is retreating 0.23% at 0.7206 and a break below 0.7156 (61.8% of 0.7015-0.7385) would expose 0.7154 (low Mar.19) and then 0.7100 (psychological level). On the flip side, the initial hurdle aligns at 0.7270 (high Apr.10) followed by 0.7279 (21-d MA) and finally 0.7281 (10-d MA).
