EUR/GBP daily chart
The initial downside target would be the June 14 low of 0.8399.
However, the correction may still continue higher as it has reached a gap (red shaded area). Gaps tend to fill up eventually, so there is a risk of prices rising further as the price fills the gap.
EUR/GBP 4-hour chart
The top and bottom points of a price gap usually represent support and resistance levels for the price. Therefore, if the price does fill the gap and tops at 0.8490, there is a risk that the price will stall and crash to a higher level.
