Euro – Yen on the forex dance floor

Euro – Yen on the forex dance floor

The pick of the day is a pair we don’t normally cover and it doesn’t include Ms. USA. Yes we’re gonna cover a minor currency a pair. How about that? It’s EUR/JPY as Mr. Euro dances against Ms. Japan rebounding on the lower boundary of a mid-term bullish channel and remain on the upside, scratching the upper band of Mr. Ichimoku cloud. The RSI is reversing up and stands above its neutrality area and our next bullish targets are set at previous top at 145 and 152 in extension. Only a break below 136 will turn the outlook to bearish with a first alternative target at 131.10 and a second one at 127.5.

Meanwhile on the fundamentals side, we got quite a few bits of positive news out of Europe, bringing positive sentiment to European assets and pushing up their currencies on the day.
