Pair's Outlook
The European currency decline a lot more than anticipated, as it reached the third support level at 128.65 yesterday. Although trade closed at 129.33, the target support was still pierced, leaving room for more weakness today. The EUR/JPY is likely to suffer another gradual decline, edging closer to the support trend-line currently at 127.58, which is also bolstered by the weekly R3. A retest of the down-trend is possible, but the cross is still expected to stabilise higher around the second support level, namely the monthly S1.
Traders' Sentiment
