After a slide from the 1.37 level, EUR/USD is starting to set up a range between 1.3430 adn 1.3350 to start the week. A break above is not indicative of a bullish continuation until at least a push above 1.35. Otherwise, there is a 4H falling channel, and further room to fall before testing the 1.3255 low from a previous consolidation range.
