EURUSD remains inside its recent range and the outlook remains bearish. The failure to hold on to recent gains highlights a shallow correction and the current consolidation appears to be a bear flag formation - a bearish continuation pattern. Moving average studies are in a bear mode condition, highlighting the current downtrend. A resumption of weakness would open 1.0454, the Feb 22 2017 low. Watch resistance at 1.0681, the 20-day EMA.
