FxWirePro: EUR/JPY on track to test 100-DMA at 118.55, good to short rallies

  • EUR/JPY slips below 120 handle, we see scope for test of 100-DMA at 118.55.
     
  • Political uncertainty in France which has pushed the French-German yield spread to four-year high weighs on the EUR.
     
  • The pair remains capped below 20-DMA, price action has dipped into daily cloud.
     
  • Short-term bias in the pair has turned bearish after break below 50-DMA. 
     
  • Strong support at 120.58 (23.6% Fib retrace of 109.20 to 124.09 rally and Jan 18 low) has been breached.
     
  • We now see test of 118.70 (trendline support) and then 118.55 (100-DMA).
