Talking Points:

  • EUR/JPY Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support:128.96, 128.00, 126.85

  • Resistance:130.63, 131.79, 132.94

The Euro corrected downward against the Japanese Yen after finding resistance below the 132.00 figure. A daily close below trend line resistance-turned-support at 128.96 exposes the 38.2% Fibonacci expansion at 128.00. Alternatively, reversal above the 38.2% Fib retracement at 130.63 clears the way for a challenge of the 50% threshold at 131.79.

Risk/reward considerations argue against entering short with prices in close proximity to support. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bullish reversal signal suggests taking up the long side is premature. We will remain flat for now, waiting for a more actionable opportunity to present itself.
