  • EUR/GBP has a volatile session on Thursday. Spiked to as high as 0.9026 before falling back to 0.8910 levels.
     
  • In separate data, UK retail sales showed strongest quarterly gains since late 2014, boosting the pound.
     
  • Techs on daily charts are bearish. The pair has seen multiple rejections at trendline. Bias lower.
     
  • Downside finds strong support by 20-DMA at 0.8860, break below could accentuate weakness.
