Pair's Outlook
Despite strong volatility to the upside, the EUR/JPY cross still edged down on Friday. The 134.50 level proved to be too difficult to be pierced, forcing the pair to suffer a 70-pip loss. The Yen keeps calling the shots, and the Euro is likely to fall again today. The Bollinger band around 132.84 acts as the closest support, although a fall this deep is unlikely to occur. Moreover, the 133 psychological level has a higher chance in succeeding to stop the pair from going down. Technical studies are showing mixed signs, unable to confirm either outcome.
