EUR/GBP analysis for 21/12/2017:
A series of political shuffles at the halfway point of the week did not result in a change in sentiment both on the currency market and on the debt market. Loud preparation of investors for the upcoming Christmas season was clearly drowned out by the speech of Michel Barnier, the chief negotiator on the issue of Brexit on behalf of the EU, who announced the end of the transition period from the last day of 2020. Moreover, that date, coinciding with the end of the EU's seven-year budget period and 21 months after Britain departs the EU, had long been expected as the target endpoint of the transition. The EU will also offer Britain a non-voting place at some meetings where decisions may affect specific issues and will set up special arrangements for a UK role in setting annual EU fishing quotas.
Let's now take a look at the EUR/GBP technical picture at the H4 time frame after the news was released. The bulls have managed to break out above the technical resistance at the level of 0.8868 and it looks like the price is heading towards the recent local highs at the level of 0.8991. Nevertheless, the market conditions are starting to look slightly overbought despite a decent upward momentum. The nearest support is seen at the level of 0.8868.
Market Snapshot: DAX in full-reversal mode?
The price of German DAX index has clearly reversed from the resistance at the level of 13,336 and is violating all the supports on its way down to the level of 12,953.
