The recent move down in EURJPY appears corrective, however the cross is again trading lower, today, and this has resulted in a breach of initial support at 160.91, the Jan 2 low. The next support to watch is 160.54, 50.0% of the Dec 3 - 30 bull cycle. The 61.8% level is at 159.51. A reversal higher would signal the end of the corrective cycle and refocus attention on 164.90, the Dec 30 high.
