Key quotes

“EUR/USD Resistance is at 1.3325, a break above which would extend the recent strength to 1.3452. Support is at 1.3215, a decline through which would open the way to the critical 1.3103, suggesting a neutral outlook.”

Moving to the EUR/GBP, “having tested the strong support at 0.8397, the immediate risk appears for a short-term recovery to unwind the sharp sell-off. Resistance is at 0.8486. Support is at 0.8383 ahead of 0.8285, suggesting a bearish outlook.”
