FxWirePro: EUR/JPY retreat from 61.8% Fibos finds strong support at 20-DMA (132.29), good to go short on break below

  • EUR/JPY is extending declines for 2nd consecutive week after upside was capped at 61.8% Fibo.
     
  • The pair now finds strong support in 132.23/30 level (nearly converged 20-DMA and weekly 5-SMA).
     
  • We see further weakness on break below. Scope then for test of 200W SMA at 130.39 levels.
     
  • Technical indicators on weekly charts are showing slight weakness. RSI has rolled over from overbought levels.
     
  • We see bearish divergence on RSI and Stochs on daily charts which adds downside bias.
     
  • Breach of 20-DMA support finds next major support at 50-DMA at 130.84 and then 200W SMA at 130.39.
     
  • We see bearish invalidation only on break above 61.8% Fib retracement of 149.787 to 109.205 fall at 134.28.

Support levels - 132.29 (20-DMA), 131.75 (Sept 26 low), 130.84 (50-DMA), 130.39 (200W SMA)

Resistance levels - 132.47 (5-DMA), 133, 134.28 (61.8% Fib retracement of 149.787 to 109.205 fall)

Recommendation: Good to go short on break below 20-DMA at 132.29, SL: 133, TP: 132/ 131.75/ 131/ 130.85
