EUR/USD Technical Analysis: Remains capped below a descending trend-line hurdle post-ECB

   “¢   The pair once again failed to make it through a short-term descending trend-line resistance, extending from highs touched in mid-May and June/July monthly tops.  

   “¢   Bulls, however, have managed to defend the 1.1700 handle after the ECB announced its latest monetary policy decision to leave interest rates unchanged.  

   “¢   A follow-through weakness below 200-period SMA on the 4-hourly chart will add credence to the rejection slide and pave the way for additional weakness.
