Following the solid multi-week bounce off the 50-dma, EURJPY faded off highs Wednesday as US CPI helped underpin a JPY recovery. Despite the corrective pullback, the M/T trend structure remains bullish and a break of 171.56, Apr 29 high, would confirm a resumption of the bull cycle. Initial resistance is 169.78, a Fibonacci retracement. On the downside, first support to watch lies at 166.61, the 20-day EMA. Key trendline support drawn from the Dec 7 ‘23 low, lies at 165.53. A clear break of this line would highlight a stronger reversal.
