I want to start with the 1H chart. Last week's action has been bullish, and it ended the week with a breakout of a consolidation pattern. This week however saw a failure to challenge the 0.83 handle, followed by a drift back down. Now, there is a break below last week's rising support. (EUR/GBP 1H chart: click for full size) Bearish break is more significant: In summary this was: a bullish break of a consolidation followed by a bearish break of a larger pattern. This larger pattern may be more significant, so the focus should shift toward the bearish breakout. Momentum: The fact that the 1H RSI is also pushing below 40 suggests a pattern of bullish momentum in the 1H chart is being broken. Rising wedge breakout: A break below 0.8214 should be another bearish sign as it would put a lower low extending the bearish break of the rising wedge. When we move out to the daily chart. we see a couple of things: 1) EUR/GBP has a bearish trend since Aug. 20132) The pair has somewhat turned sideways in 2014, but there is still a bearish tilt. With this prevailing condition, the bearish breakout is seen as a bearish continuation break. The technical picture shows a slightly higher upside risk so far in 2014 than previously during the downtrend, but the downside risk remains high.
