EUR/GBP in tight range near 0.7070

FXStreet (Edinburgh) - The better tone from the single currency and the sterling is allowing a tad improvement in EUR/GBP, moving to the vicinity of 0.7080.

EUR/GBP rebounded from 0.7060

After hitting the boundaries of 0.7100 the figure on Tuesday, the European cross staged a drop to the 0.7060 region, against a backdrop of an increasing bid tone around the greenback.
