EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Euro bulls losing grip of the 1.1700 figure ahead of FOMC minutes

  • EUR/USD met resistance at 1.1720 resistance and is now trading below the 1.1700 figure.  
  • Market participants will pay particular attention to the FOMC meeting minutes at 18:00 GMT. The event is likely to lead to high volatility.
  • EUR/USD bulls need to reclaim 1.1700, 1.1720 and 1.1730 resistances in order to extend the bull move. Failure to do so can lead to a rotation towards the 1.1600 figure.
