EUR/USD Price Analysis: A drop to the 2017 low near 1.0340 looks likely

EUR/USD drops further and breaks below 1.0500.
Extra losses could now extend to the 1.0340 area.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/USD remains well into the negative territory and tests lows in the 1.0470 zone, an area last traded back in January 2017.

The downside momentum in the pair remains well and sound and now the door looks wide open to a potential visit to the 2017 low at 1.0340 (April 3) sooner rather than later.

While below the 2-month line around 1.1000, extra losses remain well on the cards for the pair.
