EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Extends losses to two days, diving below 158.00

  • EUR/JPY slips amid a risk-on mood, as it remains below the Ichimoku Cloud
  • Further downside is seen below the Tenkan and Kijun Sen levels as the pair aims toward 156.00.
  • The EUR/JPY could shift bullish if buyers reclaim 159.00.

The EUR/JPY begins the week on a lower note, posting losses of 0.17% on Monday amid a risk-on impulse. The cross-currency pair's upward move was quickly rejected at a multi-month support trendline turned resistance, opening the door for a pullback. Therefore, the pair is trading at 157.92 as Tuesday’s Asian session begins, almost flat.

The cross-pair base shifted bearish after diving below the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo). That along with the cross of the Tenkan-Sen below the Kijun-Sen, has kept the EUR/JPY capped below the 159.00 figure. If sellers would like to extend the downtrend, they must drag prices below the Tenkan-Sen at 157.03, followed by the Kijun-Sen at 156.48, as the pair extends its losses toward 156.00.

On the other hand, if the EUR/JPY reverses its course and achieves a daily close above 158.50, that could open the door for a test of 159.00. On further strength, the pair would aim towards the bottom of the Kumo at 159.30, ahead of challenging 160.00.
