FXStreet (Mumbai) – The cross in the EUR/GBP is seen on the bids, keeping range around the mid-point of 0.73 handle, mainly driven by broad euro strength amid light trading.
EUR/GBP trades above all major DMAs
Currently, the EUR/GBP pair trades 0.10% higher near fresh daily highs posted at 0.7358 last minutes. The cross defends mild gains largely due to the ongoing bullish momentum in the EUR/USD pair. While the pound treads water against the greenback on the back of holiday-thinned UK trading desks.
Meanwhile, the shared currency remains buoyed across the board on the back of negative performance on the European stocks, which increases the bids for the traditional safe-haven in the euro.
