Looking at the 4-hour chart, the pair saw a downside correction from the 1.1010 zone. It traded below a key bullish trend line with support near 1.0930. There was a break below the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the 1.0668 swing low to the 1.1012 high.
Nevertheless, the bulls were active above the 1.0840 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the 1.0668 swing low to the 1.1012 high.
The pair is also above the 100 simple moving average (red, 4 hours) and the 200 simple moving average (green, 4 hours). If there is a fresh increase, the pair might struggle near 1.0930.
The first major resistance is near the 1.0950 zone. If there is a move above the 1.0950 resistance, the pair could rise toward 1.1000. Any more gains might send EUR/USD toward the 1.1050 level.
Immediate support is near the 1.0840 level. The next major support is near the 1.0800 level and the 100 simple moving average (red, 4 hours). If there is a downside break below the 1.0800 support, the pair could decline toward the 1.0750 support. The main support sits at 1.0665.
