The trend set-up in EURJPY is unchanged, it remains bullish and the cross is holding on to its recent gains. Price has recently cleared 166.69, the Oct 31 ‘24 high. Scope is seen for a climb towards 170.47, a key Fibonacci retracement point. Note that the uptrend is in overbought territory, a pullback would unwind this condition. Support to watch lies at 166.67, the 20-day EMA. A break would suggest potential for a deeper retracement.

Despite yesterday’s strong bounce, a downtrend in USDJPY remains intact and short-term gains are considered corrective. Support at 142.36, the May 6 low, has been pierced. A clear break of it would open 139.89, the Apr 22 low and the next key support. On the upside, key short-term resistance has been defined at 148.65, the May 12 high. Initial firm resistance to watch is 145.68, the 50-day EMA.
