This image is no longer relevant

Several congestion zones were established around the price levels of 1.3800, 1.3580 and 1.3335 before further bearish decline could take place.

The recent bearish slide below 1.2870 invalidated the previous attempt of bullish reversal. Thus, bearish decline towards 1.2680 and 1.2570 took place shortly after achieving the projection targets of the recent flag pattern.

Careful monitoring price action around the current price levels is essential to determine the next destination of the EUR/USD pair.

The pair looks oversold and trading beyond the lower limit of the channel. Earlier today, some bullish recovery was witnessed towards 1.2670 ( backside of the breached channel ).

The current short-term bearish trend remains intact as long as bears keep defending the price zone around 1.2870 (the recent consolidation zone).

The bearish slide below 1.2820 invalidated the possibility of a short-term bullish reversal.

Careful watching of price action around the current price levels is essential to determine the next destination of the EUR/USD pair.

Recommendation :

A conservative trader should wait for daily closure again inside the channel to look for long positions.

In case the bulls initiate a corrective movement around the lower limit of the channel being breached today, the first target levels to be visited should be located around 1.2870 and 1.2940 where the upper limit of the channel and significant Fibonacci level are located.
