- EUR/USD Technical Strategy: Shorts Preferred
- Harami paved the way for a retreat to 1.3600
- Bounce doubtful in absence of reversal patterns
EUR/USD weakness has persisted following the Harami pattern on the daily which helped herald a decline to 1.3590. A daily close below the support level would leave the pair exposed to a retreat to the 1.3500 handle.
