FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - The EURGBP rallied on the release of UK GDP data on the back of a falling British Pound. The cross has reached 0.8529 high, so far, after breaching above the 0.8500 psychological level as investors sell the British currency in reaction to a downbeat report.

The UK showed no growth in the end of 2012, according to the preliminary publication. 0.0% in Q4 (YoY) as the actual figure, coming lower than the expected 0.2% growth. The quarterly change was a 0.3% contraction, wider than the expeted 0.1% drop.

Mataf.net analysts point to resistances at 0.8535 and 0.8550. On the downside, supports might be found at 0.8475, 0.8460 and 0.8420.
