EUR/JPY recovers overnight losses
FXstreet.com (Barcelona) - Having declined overnight to post a low at 141.19, EUR/JPY has climbed into the European session to recover its losses and post a daily high at 141.93.
EUR/JPY led higher by European PMIs
Overnight, EUR/JPY was led lower by a strengthening Yen following mixed to lower Tankan data and a miss in Chinese HSBC Manufacturing PMI. The pair found support just above S1 support at 141.19 where it ranged into the European session, and has climbed to erase its overnight decline and post a high at 141.98 following generally improving German and EU Manufacturing PMIs. Elsewhere, Italian Trade Balance figures improved and all eyes will be fixed on ECB President Draghi’s speech at 14:00 GMT.
What are today’s key EUR/JPY levels?
Hourly RSI sits at 50, with ADX at 23. The hourly 200 SMA sits at 140.81 and is climbing higher, alongside the daily 20 EMA at 139.11. The daily pivot point sits at 142.01, with support below at 141.1947 (S1), 140.5963 (S2) and 139.7712 (S3) and resistance above at 142.6182 (R1), 143.4433 (R2) and 144.0417 (R3). The range between 141.92-142.26 should provide technical resistance, with several key levels clustered there.
