Talking Points:

  • EUR/JPY Technical Strategy: Short at 135.25

  • Support: 132.04, 129.17, 126.86

  • Resistance:133.81, 137.64, 139.95

The Euro is digesting losses having declined as expected against the Japanese Yen after snapping the uptrend in play since early January. A daily close below the 23.6% Fibonacci expansionat 132.04 exposes the 129.17-130.13 area (38.2% level, January 26 low). Alternatively, a turn back above the 133.54-81 zone (14.6% Fib, January 20 low) opens the door for a test of the 136.68-137.64 region (trend line support-turned-resistance, February 12 high, 38.2% Fib retracement).
