EUR/USD Price Analysis: Bears in control, but weekly M-formation is menacing

  • EUR/USD bears in control and targets a deeper demand area for the foreseeable future. 
  • The M-formation on the weekly chart contradicts the bearish bias.

The price has formed a resistance, as more evident here in the four-hour time frame:

The price has made a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement and is stalling. Therefore, the path of least resistance would be expected to be to the downside. 

However, the weekly chart's M-formation should also be noted and considered as a risk:

The M-formation is a reversion pattern and the neck line would be expected to be retested in due course.
