EURJPY traded sharply lower again Thursday after the cross found resistance just above the 50-day EMA, at 142.56. This leaves key resistance at 142.94, the Dec 28 high, intact for now and confirms the recent recovery as corrective. A stronger reversal lower would refocus attention on 137.39, the Jan 3 low, where a break would resume the 2-month downtrend and open 137.03, the Aug 29 low. For bulls, clearance of 142.94 would signal a reversal.
