The forecast for the EUR/GBP turned bullish after this currency pair corrected into its horizontal support area. Price action trades above its ascending Kijun-sen and below its downward-shifting Tenkan-sen. The Senkou Span A of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud completed a bullish crossover above the Senkou Span B, but the cloud is narrow, suggesting more short-term volatility ahead. Traders should also monitor the CCI in extreme oversold territory. This technical indicator could set a higher low before attempting a breakout, which could trigger the next leg higher.
