EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro correcting bear leg below the 1.1700 level

  • EUR/USD failed to conclusively break above the 1.1700 level as bears have taken the lead in the early European session. 
  • EUR/USD broke below the bull trend line and the 50 and 100-period simple moving average on the 15-minute chart. 
  • The current move higher can be seen as a bear flag which could lead to a resumption of the bear move initiated earlier in the day.
