Not only is EUR/GBP approaching vital point breaks at 0.7784 and 0.7752 but EUR/NZD and EUR/CAD are also at important break points at EUR/CAD 1.4347 and 1.6226 EUR/NZD. EUR/GBP bottoms are located at 0.7831 and 0.7770 then next comes 0.7878, 0.7910, 0.7925 and 0.8019. Further, breaks at 0.7752 targets 0.7645. The big point breaks above are located at 0.7999 and 0.8069. The strategy is short to target 0.7645 on a break of 0.7752.

GBP/USD trades below the 1 year average. January 2009, GBP/USD traded 1.3499, lows not seen since 2001 and 1984 – 1986 during the Plaza Accords. Both periods 2001 and 1984 – 1986, GBP/USD experienced first ever 1.1000’s – 1.4000 lows historically dating to 1953. The strategy is GBP/USD lower, target the range lows first at 1.4199 – 1.4081.
