EUR/USD teeters above critical support

The 1.0500 level has served as a major historical support area for EUR/USD within the past two years. Previously, the currency pair had not traded at these depths for more than a decade – since early 2003. While it was breached to the downside slightly and briefly in March of 2015, the 1.0500 level has been repeatedly tested and has held its ground several times since then. The last time the level was tested was only one week ago, when EUR/USD extended its recent plunge to approach 1.0500 before bouncing abruptly as the dollar made a modest pullback.
