Talking Points:

  • EUR/JPY Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 131.87, 130.09, 128.31
  • Resistance:134.13, 135.43, 137.63

The Euro snapped a three-day losing streak against the Japanese Yen, producing the largest advance in over two months. A daily close above the 134.07-13 area marked by the 23.6% Fibonacci expansion and the October 16 low exposes the 14.6% level at 135.43. Alternatively, a reversal below the 38.2% Fib at 131.87 opens the door for a test of the 50% expansion at 130.09.

Prices are too close to resistance to justify entering long from a risk/reward perspective. On the other hand, the absence of a defined bearish reversal signal suggests that taking up the short side is premature. With that in mind, we will remain flat for now.
