EUR/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 128.61; (P) 129.13; (R1) 129.53;
EUR/JPY’s fall accelerates to as low as 128.37 so far today. Break of 128.60 minor support suggests that rebound from 126.63 has completed at 130.14. And, with 130.20 resistance intact, fall from 133.12 is still in progress. Intraday bias is back on the downside for 124.61/89 support zone. On the upside, break of 130.14 resistance is now needed to confirm rise resumption. Otherwise, near term outlook will stay cautiously bearish in case of recovery.
In the bigger picture, as long as 124.08 key resistance turn supported holds, larger up trend from 109.03 (2016 low) is still in progress. Firm break of 137.49 structural resistance will target 141.04/149.76 resistance zone next. However, decisive break of 124.08 will argue that such rise from 109.03 has completed and turn outlook bearish. In that case, deeper fall would be seen to 61.8% retracement of 109.03 to 137.49 at 119.90.
GBP/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 147.09; (P) 148.10; (R1) 148.71;
GBP/JPY’s fall from 149.48 accelerates lower today and focus is on 146.28 support. Decisive break there will confirm completion of rebound from 142.76. And in that case, deeper fall should be seen back to 142.76 and possibly below. On the upside, decisive break of 149.70 will resume whole rise from 139.88 and target 153.84/156.59 resistance zone.
In the bigger picture, as long as 139.29 cluster support (50% retracement of 122.36 to 156.59 at 139.47) holds, up trend from 122.36 (2016 low) would still extend beyond 156.69 high. However, decisive break of 139.29/47 will suggest that such up trend is completed and turn outlook bearish. In that case, next target is 61.8% retracement at 135.43.
