EURJPY: Bullish Rebound from Key Demand Zone

37
EURJPY has bounced off a critical demand zone and is showing signs of a bullish recovery. Despite the recent pullback, the pair’s structure remains fundamentally and technically bullish, driven by JPY weakness and EUR resilience.

Technical Analysis (4H Chart)
Pattern: Price tested a strong demand zone near 170.35–170.50 and rejected it aggressively.

Current Level: 170.77, starting a potential bullish leg toward higher resistance levels.

Key Support Levels:

170.35 – key demand zone and invalidation level for bulls.

169.90 – deeper support if demand zone breaks.

Resistance Levels:

172.17 – first bullish target and interim resistance.

173.64 – major target if bullish continuation sustains.

Projection: A successful rebound from 170.35 could drive price toward 172.17 initially, then 173.64 if momentum holds.

Fundamental Analysis
Bias: Bullish.

Key Fundamentals:

EUR: ECB’s slower path toward easing supports EUR stability relative to JPY.

JPY: Weakness persists as BoJ maintains dovish bias, though FX intervention risk limits JPY downside speed.

Global Sentiment: Mild risk-on mood supports EUR strength against JPY.

Risks:

BoJ verbal intervention or actual FX intervention could trigger temporary JPY strength.

Sharp reversal in global risk sentiment could weaken EUR/JPY.

Key Events:

ECB speeches and data (CPI, growth updates).

BoJ FX comments and broader market risk appetite.

Leader/Lagger Dynamics
EUR/JPY is a leader among JPY pairs, often moving in sync with GBP/JPY and CHF/JPY. Its movement also tends to precede confirmation in risk-sensitive JPY crosses.

Summary: Bias and Watchpoints
EUR/JPY is bullish from the 170.35 demand zone, with a potential move toward 172.17 and 173.64. Key watchpoints include ECB communication, BoJ stance, and market risk sentiment. As long as 170.35 holds, bulls remain in control.
Note
JPY Weakness: The Bank of Japan (BoJ) is still cautious about aggressive rate hikes despite FX intervention risks. This keeps JPY fundamentally weak against high-yielding currencies.

Relative Strength of EUR, GBP, CHF:

EUR is supported by slower ECB easing relative to Fed expectations.

GBP benefits from the BOE’s cautious stance due to sticky inflation.

CHF is gaining from safe-haven appeal amid trade tensions, and rate cuts from SNB are expected to be slower than Fed cuts.

Risk Sentiment: A risk-on environment (stocks recovering after Fed cut expectations) supports risk currencies like EUR and GBP against JPY.
