EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Bearish flag on short-term chart points to further weakness
• The pair was seen oscillating in a narrow trading range through the mid-European session on Monday, forming a bearish flat chart pattern on the 15-min. chart.
• The fact that the pair has shown some resilience at lower levels, bearish traders need to hold a break below 1.1600 for the next leg of downfall to materialize.
• A convincing break below will now be seen as the end of the recent corrective bounce and the resumption of the underlying/well-established bearish trend.
