EURJPY is holding on to the bulk of its recent gains. Despite the move higher - a correction - a bearish trend theme remains intact. However, the latest climb has delivered a print above 180.87, the 20-day EMA. A clear break of this hurdle would signal scope for a stronger recovery, potentially towards the 50-day EMA, at 182.56. MA studies are in a bear-mode position, highlighting a dominant downtrend. The bear trigger lies at 177.85, the Sep 14 low.
