As illustrated, the price reached the target, but is now trapped between hourly support and resistance as follows:
The price is trading below the 21-hour SMA which has a confluence with prior lows that are now acting as resistance.
There are prospects of a downside continuation on a break below 1.2040.
Meanwhile, the DXY is a mixed technical picture from a daily perspective:
There has been a huge rejection which has left a bearish wick while, at the same time, the price has corrected to a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level in a discount for the bulls.
From a weekly perspective, the euro is in a corrective phase, so an upside correction is very possible.
Therefore, the current support in the DXY is fragile.
