However, the pair seems to be struggling near the 1.1240 level the 50 hourly simple moving average. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near 1.1255 on the hourly chart of EUR/USD.

The trend line coincides with the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the 1.1287 high to 1.1191 low. Therefore, the pair must break the 1.1250 and 1.1255 resistance levels to start a fresh increase.

If the bulls succeed, the pair could continue to rise towards the 1.1280 and 1.1300 levels. Conversely, there is a risk of another decline below the 1.1220 support. The main support is near the 1.1180 level.

A downside break and close below the 1.1180 support region could start a strong decline and the pair might slide towards the 1.1120 and 1.1100 levels in the near term.
