Investing.com - The euro slipped against the U.S. dollar on Monday, testing support at 1.36 after the head of Greece's central bank was quoted as saying his country was ready to take additional steps to plug its gaping budget deficit.
EUR/USD hovered around 1.3603 during European morning trade, shedding 0.07%. The pair was likely to find support at 1.3445, Friday's low and a 9-month low, and resistance at 1.3839, the high of Feb. 9.
The euro also fell against the yen, with EUR/JPY dropping 0.3% to hit 124.21.
Earlier Monday, Bloomberg quoted the Greek central bank governor, George Provopoulos, as saying that, "Even if some risks materialize - like growth - the government is prepared to take immediate corrective action."
Fears over Greece's debt crisis have hurt the euro in recent weeks.
