Suppose $phiintext{Aut}(mathbb{R})$.
$$phi(1)^2 = phi(1) implies phi(1) = 1 $$
since $phi$ is an automorphism. It's easy to see that for $xinmathbb{Q}$, $phi(x) = x.$ For $x> 0$
$$phi(x) = phi(sqrt{x})^2> 0. $$
So $$ x>y implies phi(x)>phi(y).$$
If $x$ is irrational, there exists $2$ sequences, one increasing $x_n$, and one decreasing $y_n$, both are sequences of rational numbers, and converge to $x$.
$$y_n = phi(y_n)geq phi(x)geq phi(x_n) = x_n $$
By taking limit, $phi(x) =x$ for all $x$.

@stressedout You only apply limits to $y_ngeqphi(x)geq x_n$.
