EUR/USD Technical Analysis: EUR/USD gives up 1.1700, is this time for good?

  • EUR/USD had a failed breakout above 1.1740 earlier in Europe after which it lost almost a 100 pips to the downside. After it made a daily low at 1.1649, prices remained contained below 1.1672 which is now acting as near-term resistance. 
  • The bears are quite strong and EUR/USD should progress lower as long as it stays below 1.1672 and 1.1700 resistances. The idea of bull breakout above 1.1740 seems at the moment unlikely unless a fundamental catalyst shocks the market. 
  • Bear targets are seen near 1.1640-1.1649 area and 1.1613, last week's low.
