Pair's Outlook
Following a test of a formidable support zone at 140.15/03 EUR/JPY is now grinding higher. The nearest resistance is at 141.47, namely the weekly PP, but, judging by the technical indicators, there is a good chance the currency pair will manage to approach the monthly PP at 142.91. Nevertheless, banks' forecasts suggest the Euro is going to lose value—the median estimate for the first quarter is 138.
