If bears manage to return the pair to its middle, a “Shakeout-Fakeout” pattern will be triggered. As a result, the risks of reversal of the current trend will increase.
On H1, EUR/GBP reached the targets of “Three Indians” near the convergence level (127.2% target of AB=CD). Bears seized the initiative, so there’s sense to use breaks or pullbacks from resistance levels for selling the pair.
