FXStreet (Guatemala) – EUR/JPY is currently trading at 138.75 with a high of 138.80 and a low of 138.67.
EUR/JPY is looking to recovery from the bearish gap formed at the close of last week and open of this week’s business. The bulls are testing the upside but have not exceeded the top of the hammer of Friday’s business. There market is fundamentally gearing up for a Grexit while today the German ZEW and CPI’s were disappointing. We now await the FOMC and BoJ.
The BoJ will be of direct interest given the recent comments of BoJ officials calling for a top in USD/JPY at recent highs through the psychological 125 figure. So, the press conference will be of great interest and the price of the Yen is likely to be discussed and that could be a fundamental catalyst for supply in the cross.
Technically, if the bulls manage a break higher, then this could bring in the 1.41 level and offer a catalyst for further support and demand to test this barrier. A break higher would be very bullish and likely set the trend in place for a continuation and extension of the broader bull trend.
