Talking Points:

  • EUR/JPY Technical Strategy: Flat

  • Support: 135.13, 131.68, 129.54

  • Resistance:137.93, 140.73, 144.19

The Euro is digesting gains against the Japanese Yen having found an interim top just below the 136.00 figure. A daily close below the 14.6% Fibonacci retracement at 134.54 exposes the 23.6% level at 133.65. Alternatively, push above the May 7 high at 135.98 clears the way for a test of the 38.2% Fib expansion at 136.61.

Positioning is inconclusive at this point, with prices offering no clear-cut and actionable signal to initiate a long or short trade. We will continue to remain on the sidelines for the time being, waiting for a compelling opportunity to present itself.
