EUR/GBP is pressing resistance at 0.8450. Although not their base case, economists at ING note that the pair could reach the 0.8485/0.8500 area on a break above here.

0.8450 might prove the top of a near-term trading range

“We had felt that 0.8450 might prove the top of a near-term trading range – despite the Bank of England's bleak prognosis last week.”

“There still does not seem a compelling case for EUR/GBP to trade substantially higher, but we acknowledge that a break of 0.8450 can carry EUR/GBP to the 0.8485/8500 area.”
