EUR/USD is currently trading around 1.1204, with the previous day's upward trend coming to a pause. After a pullback from the 1.1250 level, the focus now shifts to whether the pair can hold the key 1.1200 support. Technically, the short-term bullish momentum is fading, as suggested by a slowing ADX and narrowing DMI lines. Depending on future price action, the support zone around 1.1150–1.1120 may come back into play.
EUR/USD retreated upon approaching the 200-hour moving average (red line), which is now acting as a strong resistance level. Meanwhile, the 50MA (blue line) is providing support, but the weakening price momentum signals a possible downside break that should not be ignored.
The ADX at the bottom of the chart has flattened out after peaking during the recent uptrend and is now hovering around 0.18, suggesting the trend is losing strength. Although the +DI (green line) spiked temporarily, it is slowing again and converging with -DI, indicating that bullish momentum is gradually fading.
Volume, which had been increasing during the rally, is now trending downward, reflecting reduced buying participation. Notably, the decline in volume accompanied by bearish candlesticks suggests growing uncertainty, increasing the likelihood of a short-term correction.

EUR/USD is currently in a pullback phase after a short-term rally, with the battle around 1.1200 drawing attention. Given the position of the moving averages and the behavior of ADX and DMI, buying pressure appears to be weakening. Traders should maintain flexibility by considering both buy-the-dip and sell-the-rally opportunities. As this may signal the start of a trend reversal, close attention to volume and momentum changes will be crucial for building a sound trading strategy.
