Societe Generale’s Kenneth Broux and colleagues note that EUR/GBP has formed a lower high near 0.8740 and is struggling above its 200‑day moving average, with price action resembling a Head and Shoulders pattern. They highlight 0.8610 as key support, with potential downside projections to 0.8560/0.8535 and 0.8475, while a move above 0.8740 would negate the bearish setup.
