EUR/JPY: remaining short for 136.00 – Commerzbank

Key Quotes

“EUR/JPY has failed to overcome the 4th June high at 141.06 and this coupled with divergence of the RSI , a 13 count on the daily chart and the fact that the market is stalling just ahead of the top of its channel, we favour near term failure. It should provoke a slide back to the base of the channel at 135.92.”

“Current Position: Short 140.70 Recommended Trade: Stop over 141.10. Partially cover 137.25. Exit the remainder 136.00.”
