FxWirePro: EUR/JPY rangebound below 130 handle, German econ ministry's upbeat comments lend little support

EUR/JPY chart - Trading View 

Spot Analysis:

EUR/JPY was trading largely unchanged at 129.78 at around 08:40 GMT

Previous Week's High/ Low: 130.69/ 129.66

Previous Session's High/ Low: 130.27/ 129.68

Fundamental Overview:

The German economy ministry said that the country's GDP growth is likely to pick up significantly in Q3 following a 1.6% QoQ rise in the previous quarter. 

The ministry further added that the GDP growth is expected to normalize in the fourth quarter.

ECB-led gains have likely fizzled out at 21-week EMA resistance. Uncertainty surrounding the German elections is weighing on the single currency.

Technical Analysis:

- EUR/JPY has formed an inverted hammer on Friday's trade

- The pair failed to extend break into the daily cloud

- Price action is pivotal at 200-DMA support, break below will plummet prices

- Recovery attempts rejected at 200H MA

- Stochs show bearish rollover from overbought levels

Major Support and Resistance Levels:

Support - 129.49 (200-DMA), Resistance - 130.04 (110-EMA)

Summary: EUR/JPY recovery from multi-month lows has been rejected at daily cloud. Bias has turned bearish. Watch out for break below 200-DMA for bearish continuation.
