EURUSD is consolidating but remains vulnerable. The recent move lower signals the start of a correction allowing a recent overbought condition to unwind. Price action has this week traded through the 20-day EMA and this exposes support at 1.2130, the Dec 21 low. A breach here would open the 50-day EMA at 1.2093. Note too that current consolidation appears to be a bear flag, reinforcing bearish conditions. 1.2230 marks initial resistance.
