A corrective bear cycle in EURJPY remains in play and highlights potential for an extension lower near-term. The cross has recently traded below the 20- and 50-day EMAs - a bearish development. A clear break of 158.08, the Feb 1 low, would resume bearish pressure and open 157.21, the Jan 9 low. For bulls, a stronger reversal would refocus attention on 161.86, the Jan 19 high and bull trigger. A break of this level would reinstate the recent bullish theme.
