EUR/USD hourly chart's review

If the EUR/USD passes the support of the 1.1563/1.1568 zone, the weekly S1 simple pivot point at 1.1532 could be reached. However, take into account that the 1.1550 mark might serve as a support level.

On the other hand, a recovery from the 1.1563/1.1568 zone might encounter resistance at 1.1600. The 55 and 100-hour simple moving averages are located near the 1.1600 level and could strengthen its resistance. Above the 1.1600 mark, the weekly simple pivot point at 1.1631 would likely provide resistance.

On the daily candle chart, EUR/USD has passed the 2020 September and November low level at 1.1600. The rate has not been so low for more than a year. The last time the EUR/USD was below 1.1600 was in July 2020.
