EUR/JPY chart on Trading View used for analysis 

  • EUR/JPY trades 0.22% lower on the day at 130.87 at the time of writing.
     
  • The major is on track to close in the red for the 2nd straight week.
     
  • The single currency is being hit on European political concerns.
     
  • Price is extending weakness after spinning top formation on the previous week's chart.
     
  • 200-DMA at 130.94 is strong support for the pair ahead of 5W-SMA at 130.69. 
     
  • Momentum studies are bearish. Stochs and RSI are sharply lower and MACD is showing a bearish crossover on signal line.
     
  • Decisive break below 200-DMA will see extension of weakness. Scope for dip till 110-EMA at 130.08.
     
  • Bounce off at 200-DMA negates bearish bias. The pair could then retest 131 levels.
