The Euro to British Pound exchange rate, currently at 0.85878, is experiencing a slight improvement after a decline earlier on Monday. However, the improvement is not significant and there are still limitations to the overall progress.

- The EUR/GBP sees recovery from early Monday’s slide, but progress remains limited.
The EUR/GBP pairing continues to look for a foothold on the charts, but this week brings key United Kingdom (UK) data and a critical rate call from the European Central Bank (ECB). Showings for both currencies threaten to keep the EUR/GBP pair hamstrung as sentiment drifts back and forth between the two.
The UK faces wage growth, unemployment, and industrial activity figures for the first half of the trading week. Wage figures, while slowly declining, remain elevated. The UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer Jeremy Hunt noted over the weekend that the Bank of England (BoE) is facing stickier inflation than they previously forecast.
Stubborn inflation issues are partly driven by elevated wage growth, and if figures remain too high for too long it could mire the BoE, making an outright dovish or hawkish stance difficult to maintain.
On the Euro side of the data calendar, the ECB is slated to publish its latest rate call during Thursday’s market session. Market participants are increasingly convinced that the rate hike cycle has peaked in Europe, despite hawkish jawboning from ECB officials recently.
Market forecasts broadly anticipate the ECB to stand pat on rates for September’s meeting, though any nasty surprises from the ECB could throw markets for a loop.
The Euro (EUR) is looking for a leg up against the Pound Sterling (GBP) in the markets today, trading into a session high of 0.8587. The pair started the trading week on a decidedly softer tone, with the Euro declining to 0.8558 before facing a rally on the back of a waffling GBP.
Longer-term, the pair is looking decidedly constrained, with the EUR/GBP trading into familiar territory for the past three months. The pair refuses to decline any further, marking its territory above the 0.8500 handle, but resistance from a declining 50-day EMA at 0.8585 is capping upside momentum.
