EUR/USD analysis for 06/11/2017:

The Eurozone PMI data are scheduled for release during the early stages of London session, between 07:00 am - 09:00 am GMT. Later on, the Eurozone will release the Sentix Investor Confidence data. This is a survey of about 2,800 investors and analysts which asks respondents to rate the relative 6-month economic outlook for the Eurozone. For this month there is an increase in sentiment expected, from 29.7 to 31.2 points, which would indicate that the overall mood across the Eurozone remains elevated.

Let's now take a look at the EUR/USD technical picture at the H4 time frame. The clear Bearish Flag pattern on the H4 time frame indicated another possible leg down in this pair. The bulls were unable to rally towards 50% Fibo at the level of 1.1705 and the momentum indicator is still oscillating around its fifty level. The outlook remains bearish and the sell-off might accelerate once the price breaks out below the 1.1575 support level.
