EUR/JPY showing sings it want sto roll over

“For the last two weeks, the EURJPY has been showing signs it wants to roll over, perhaps for a deep correction of the years uptrend,” said founder at 2ndSkiesForex, Chris Capre, noting “The pair has shown several characteristics of rolling over: a failed breakout, a crucial LH (lower high) which is most common in major trend reversals, and follow up impulsive selling. Also notice how the recent rally went to a key role reversal level and sold right back off,” Capre added.

“Next up is the key 127.51 major swing level from the Feb. highs A daily close below here puts pressure on 125 which was the June lows and buying point for the most recent rally. Bears can look to sell around 129.30, or look for a 4hr close below 128.24. Bulls will want to wait till the June lows before entering in new longs,” Capre concluded.
