The EUR/USD started the day with a good foot, rising up to 1.3255 on the back of positive European data, although shed all of its gains as dollar picked up momentum ahead of US opening, with little behind the movement. The EUR/USD however, stands above the base of an ascendant channel coming from mid July around 1.3200, with a neutral stance according to the hourly chart as indicators hover around their midlines, standing flat and giving no clues on direction. Bigger time frames however, maintain the positive outlook, favoring now a recovery in price.

Pound also gave up ground, trading in negative territory and struggling around a daily ascendant trend line, with the hourly chart presenting a strong bearish momentum, as 20 SMA turns lower above current price and indicators head south. In the 4 hours chart, technical readings also turned bearish, with 20 SMA converging with the line and price developing a battle around it: a price acceleration below 1.5310 should favor a bearish leg in the pair, looking for a test of the 1.5260 price zone.
