- EUR/JPY extends downside for the sixth straight session, as the yen remains heavily bid amid increased risk-off across markets.
- The pair has broken major trendline support at 120.70 and has hit lows of 119 levels.
- Pair struggles to extend below, has bounced-off from 3-1/2 year lows at 119 levels and is currently trading around 119.50.
- Caution ahead of the Fed and BOJ interest rates decision due on Wednesday and Thursday respectively, traders refrain from placing big directional bets.
