EURUSD traded lower Wednesday having failed to hold onto Tuesday's high. The price pattern on Feb 16 is a bearish candle - a shooting star. Following Wednesday's extension lower, scope is seen for a deeper pullback with the next support at 1.2020, Feb 8 low. A break of this level would expose key support at 1.1952, Feb 5 low. Gains above Wednesday's high of 1.2110 would refocus attention on key resistance at 1.2169, Tuesday's high.
