- EUR/JPY hit highs at 133.12 on dovish BoJ minutes which showed increasing support for more monetary easing.
- Further, Kuroda stressed the need to keep the policy accommodative and said the exit from QQE will happen only after the 2 percent inflation target is achieved.
- The pair however fails to hold gains above 133 handle, slips lower to currently trade at 132.67 levels.
- We note Bearish divergence on RSI and Stochs which keeps scope for downside in the pair.
- Strong support seen at 50-DMA at 132.27, break below will see further weakness.
