EUR/USD Price Analysis: US Dollar's failures above 104.20 DXY opens risk to 1.0720s

  • EUR/USD bears move in and force a failed breakout scenario for the open. 
  • Meanwhile, a bearish correction could be on the cards for this week's initial balance.

EUR/USD ended Friday near 1.0700 and in a resistance zone after breaking up through the prior week's lows, pulling in breakout traders through 1.0680 and trendline resistance the following pre-open analysis will illustrate:

Here we can see that the bulls came up into the prior resistance structure but faced supply into the close on Friday a touch below 1.07 the figure. While a move-up is a possibility in the Asian session today, the price is entering correction territory. 

Considering the failed breakout, however, the bias is still to the upside although a move into the prior week's lows and a restest of what would now be considered as a countertrend could be in order.
