EUR/USD technical analysis

On the 4-hour chart, EUR/USD tested the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement of the advance from the 1.1577 swing low to the 1.2082 peak. The pair has held above both the 100-period (red) and 200-period (green) simple moving averages, signaling underlying support.

The pair is stabilizing above 1.1780 and has recently cleared the bearish trend line near 1.1810. On the upside, initial resistance is seen around 1.1850, followed by 1.1890. A sustained close above 1.1890 could pave the way for further gains toward 1.1920, with a potential extension toward the 1.2000 handle.

On the downside, immediate support remains at 1.1780. A deeper pullback could test the 1.1720 area, while the key support level lies at 1.1700. A break below this zone would likely shift momentum in favor of the bears and could expose the 1.1650 region.
