EUR/JPY: Longest Win Streak In 6 Months

Talking Points:

  • EUR/JPY Technical Strategy: Flat
  • Support: 131.68, 129.54, 126.08
  • Resistance:135.13, 137.93, 140.73

The Euro continues to advance against the Japanese Yen, producing the longest winning streak in six months. A daily close above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at 135.13 exposes the 50% level at 137.93. Alternatively, reversal below the 23.6% Fib at 131.68 clears the way for a test of the 14.6% Fib at 129.54.

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.
