EUR/GBP Technical Analysis: Bulls continue to defend 1-1/2 month old descending trend-line support

   •  Despite yesterday's sharp intraday slide of nearly 100-pips, the cross managed to defend a short-term ascending trend-line support extending from mid-June. 

   •  Technical indicators on the daily chart have also managed to hold in positive territory and thus, increase prospects for the resumption of the prior appreciating move. 

   •  Only a convincing break below the trend-line support, currently near the 0.8960-50 region, would negate the positive outlook and exert some fresh downward pressure.
