Technical analysis of the EUR/GBP chart today shows the price moving within a descending channel (marked in red).

In September, the price bounced off the £0.840 level, which had acted as support since June. The price movement formed an arc (shown by an arrow), suggesting that:

- Demand is weakening.
- The median line of the red channel is acting as resistance.

If bears maintain control of the market, the EUR/GBP rate could fall towards the lower boundary of the red channel.

However, if bulls attempt to recover, the price may face strong resistance at the £0.840 level.
