EURUSD failed to break above 1.13575 and saw a reversal from this resistance level. Price action also broke below 1.12547 and outside the rising price channel and is currently trading at 1.117. A break below this level will see EURUSD target 1.1 price zone, which could turn into a potential support. But, failure to hold prices near 1.1 would see EURUSD turn bearish, targeting 1.08206 in the near term. To the upside, price will now have to struggle to break above the previously broken support levels.
