Prices faltered Thursday, with the cross retreating off the new cycle high through the London close. The pair has pierced initial support at the 20-day EMA, intersecting at 158.06, however more notable support comes into play between 156.87 and 156.42, the Aug 23 low and the 50-day EMA. Despite the pullback, it is important to note the technical uptrend in EURJPY remains intact and yesterday’s fresh cycle high, reinforces current conditions and confirmed a resumption of the uptrend. This also maintains the bullish price sequence of higher highs and higher lows and moving average studies remain in bull-mode position.
