FxWirePro: EUR/JPY edges higher from fresh yearly lows at 114.85, close above 5-DMA could see more upside

  • EUR/JPY pares some losses from fresh 2017 lows at 114.85 to retake 116 handle.
     
  • The pair has broken above 5-DMA at 115.84, close above could see more upside.
     
  • Technical indicators do not show signs of reversal. RSI and Stochs are deeply in oversold territory.
     
  • The pair is currently holding support at 61.8% Fib and only break below will see further downside.
     
  • Heightened North Korea tensions could see risk-off tone worsen as the week progresses, keeping safe-haven assets well in demand.

Support levels - 115.84 (5-DMA), 115.20 (trendline), 114.89 (61.8% Fib retrace of 109.205 to 124.094 rally)

Resistance levels - 116.65 (50% Fib), 117, 117.78 (200-DMA), 118.03 (20-DMA)
