• Gains in the EUR/USD lift the EUR/GBP, gaining 1.01%.
• The market sentiment improvement benefits the EUR, as it gains against most G8 currencies.
• EUR/GBP Price Forecast: Neutral biased but a daily close above the 200-DMA would shift the bias to neutral upwards.

The EUR/GBP is rallying sharply from Monday’s highs and is probing the 200-day moving average (DMA), which in the case of being broken and then a daily close achieved, would suggest a shift in the EUR/GBP bias. At the time of writing, the EUR/GBP is trading at 0.8470.

An upbeat market sentiment keeps safe-haven peers pressured. In the case of the EUR/GBP, the GBP/USD has remained downward pressured, losing 0.04% in the day. Contrarily, the EUR/USD advances almost 1%, a tailwind for the EUR/GBP.

Overnight, the EUR/GBP was subdued in the Asian Pacific session, within the 0.8383-90 range. However, as European traders got to their desks, the shared currency began its 100-rally of the day, breaking the 0.8400 mark on its way to the daily high at 0.8482.

EUR/GBP Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The EUR/GBP daily chart depicts a neutral bias. However, as mentioned in the first paragraph, a daily close above the 200-DMA which sits at 0.8467, would open the door for further gains and shift the bias to neutral-upwards.

If that scenario plays out, the EUR/GBP first resistance would be 0.8500. Breach of the latter would expose the confluence of a descending channel top-trendline and December 20, 2021, 0.8550, a daily high, followed by December 8, 2021, a daily high at 0.8599.

On the flip side, the EUR/GBP first support would be 0.8400. Once cleared, the next demand zone would be March 11 daily low at 0.8360, followed by February 21 daily low at 0.8309.
