FxWirePro: EUR/JPY bounces off 20-DMA support, could see test of 124 levels, stay long

  • EUR/JPY has shown a bounce off 20-DMA support, we see scope for further upside.
     
  • Yen largely ignores upbeat Japan retail sales data, EUR/JPY trades 0.25 pct higher on the day. 
     
  • Market sentiment remains largely mixed and uncertain given persistent holiday-thinned light trading.
     
  • Strength in RSI seen at 61 levels with scope to run further. 
     
  • Break below 20-DMA could see some downside, test of 121 levels then likely.
     
  • Short-term bearish reversal only below 200-DMA at 118.26.
     
  • Support levels - 122.68 (5-DMA), 122.32 (20-DMA), 122, 121.71 (Dec 20 low), 121, 120.58 (23.6% Fib of 109.20 to 124.09 rally)
     
  • Resistance levels - 123.24 (session high), 124.09 (Dec 15 high)
     

Recommendation: Good to go long on dips around 122.75, SL: 122.30, TP: 123.20/ 123.60/ 124.
