  • EUR/JPY is extending weakness after breach at trendline support at 123.75.
     
  • The pair is trading 0.14% lower on the day at 123.03 at 0400 GMT, slightly up from session lows at 122.90.
     
  • Trade tensions between U.S. and China keep markets jittery and weigh on the single currency. 
     
  • Price action has slipped below 123 handle, technical studies are bearish and we see scope for further weakness.
     
  • Price action below cloud and major moving averages. Momentum highly bearish, MACD and DMI support weakness.  
     
  • Next bear target lies at 61.8% Fib at 122.14. Breakout above cloud negates bearish bias.
     
  • On the data front, trade balance from Germany on Friday will be in focus. Risk-sentiment will also impact price action.
