EUR/USD weighs on key support

EUR/USD weighs on the lower boundary of the key support zone made up of the November 2023 low at $1.0517 and the October 2023 trough at $1.0449. Were it to give way, the October 2023 low at $1.0449 would be eyed. Further down lies the January 2023 low at $1.0423.

Minor resistance above last week's low at $1.0497 comes in at Wednesday's $1.0610 high.
