EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Bears are moving in, eye a break of 128.10

  • EUR/JPY is at risk of a downside correction should 128.10 give way to bearish pressures. 
  • 127.90 guards a deeper resumption of the dominant bear trend.

The daily chart shows that the price is consolidating and has reached a 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level. This would be expected to hold on to initial tests and then potentially lead to a downside test of support once again. 

The following illustrates the market’s structure and the downside bias from both a daily and shorter-term perspective:

From this hourly perspective, we can see that the price is struggling at a meanwhile resistance and given the temperament of the market, that is to say consolidative with a risk-off tone, the bias is to the downside. A break of the current trendline opens risk to test the prior hourly support near 127.90. If this were to give, then the daily support will be vulnerable near to 127.50.
