EURJPY snapped higher following the ECB decision, taking out several nearby supports on the way to 131.50. This cements the recent rally, and erases concerns that strength since the beginning of the week has been corrective in nature. Major resistance at the Jan 5 high of 131.60 is next up, and strength through here would pull the bull trigger on the way toward new 2022 highs. On the downside, price recently probed 128.38, a Fibonacci retracement. A clear break of this level would return to bearish conditions and expose 127.39, Dec 6 low and a key support.
