EURGBP appears to be riding into a corrective wave A-B-C after completing 5 waves to the downside. Yesterday, we observed an impulsive break out of wave B channel which could lead EURGBP towards final wave C as per Elliott wave analysis. we remain bullish on EURGBP with stop loss below 0.8500 targeting 0.8757 , 0.8826 and ultimately 0.8915.
After rallying towards a high of 156.07 end of May 2021, we saw a three wave corrective move to the downside in GBPJPY which possibly could be the end of a corrective wave A-B-C before a new high is formed or possibly part of a larger corrective combination wave W-X-Y as per Elliott wave perspective.

Approaching 149.00/149.10 could be an opportunity to long the market with stop below 148.30 with targets levels 150 , 150.71 and 151.70.
