After reaching the psychological level of 133.00 on Friday, it was expected that the Euro would weaken against the Yen and reach for the 55-hour SMA. However, the Euro managed to find strength once more and reach a two-year high at 133.07 by mid-Monday. 

Converging technical indicators signal that the expected reversal should begin in the nearest time—most probably during the following trading hours. Even though some short-term appreciation might still occur, this movement up is unlikely to be sustainable, thus pressuring the rate for a decline.

The nearest support is set by the monthly R1 at 132.61; however, being located nearby might not limit further losses. Thus, the downside target could be once again set near the 55– and 100-hour SMAs and the weekly PP circa 132.00.
