EUR/JPY picked up a bid yesterday, with the yen lagging all of its G10 peers in holiday-thinned trade, which allowed the pair to print best levels since Feb 1. The rate last operates at Y127.12, 6 pips higher on the day, with bulls looking for a break above Feb 11/Jan 29 highs of Y127.16/24, followed by Jan 7/Mar 1, 2019 highs of Y127.49/50. Conversely, a dip through the 50-EMA at Y126.07 would shift focus to Jan 27 low of Y125.60.
