EUR/JPY’s steep decline and strong break of 126.63 support last week indicates resumption of fall from 133.12. Intraday bias remains on the downside for the moment. Current fall should target 124.08/89 support zone next. On the upside, break of 127.68 minor resistance is needed to be the first sign of short term bottoming. otherwise, outlook will remain bearish even in case of recovery.
In the bigger picture, with the current decline, focus would be back on 124.08 key resistance turn supported holds. As long as 124.08 key resistance turn supported holds, larger up trend from 109.03 (2016 low) could still resume. Firm break of 137.49 structural resistance will target 141.04/149.76 resistance zone next. However, decisive break of 124.08 will argue that such rise from 109.03 has completed and turn outlook bearish. In that case, deeper fall would be seen to 61.8% retracement of 109.03 to 137.49 at 119.90.
In the long term picture, at this point, EUR/JPY is staying in long term sideway pattern, established since 2000. Rise from 109.03 is seen as a leg inside the pattern. As long as 124.08 support holds, further rally is in favor in medium to long term through 149.76 high. However, break of 124.08 could extend the fall through 109.03 low instead.
