EUR/USD slides as traders reassess US-EU trade deal implications

EUR/USD fell 0.35% to 1.0825 in European morning trade as market participants digested the complexities of the recently announced US-EU trade agreement. The initial positive reaction reversed as concerns emerged about implementation challenges and domestic opposition within EU member states. The dollar index gained 0.25%, benefiting from safe-haven flows amid trade uncertainty. Technical analysis shows the pair breaking below the 1.0850 support level, with momentum indicators turning bearish. The 50-day moving average at 1.0810 provides immediate support, while resistance has formed at 1.0870. Traders are closely monitoring comments from EU officials regarding the deal's sustainability. Market positioning suggests further euro weakness if the trade agreement faces significant hurdles, with the next major support level at 1.0800 psychological barrier.
