Although it has had difficulties in starting the bearish move, the pair continues to approach the technical target of the chart pattern.
As long as sellers maintain price control below the neckline zone near 1.17029, we can assume the main trend is down.

On the other hand, when we look at the US dollar index (DXY) chart, we can see that buyers are close to break above the Rising Wedge, which would invalidate the bearish scenario for the US dollar.
Given the current circumstances, we can assume that we are facing a transition phase if a bullish breakout occurs.
