EUR/JPY: Bears in control, drops further to 132.60

FXStreet (Mumbai) - The cross in the EUR/JPY failed to resist 133 handle and dropped sharply after the European open, mainly driven by broad euro weakness.

EUR/JPY rejected near 10-DMA

Currently, the EUR/JPY pair trades -0.30% lower at 132.63, hovering close to fresh session lows struck at 132.59 last minutes. A sudden bout of buying interest around the US dollar, weighed heavily on the EUR/USD, thus dragging EUR/JPY lower.

While the yen trades muted against its American counterpart, despite a negative performance seen on the European stocks. In the day, the cross will be influenced by the sentiment on the Wall Street and the US factory orders data.

To the upside, the next resistance lies at 133.09/133.12 (10-DMA + Today’s High), above which it could extend gains to 133.40/59 (Oct 30 & 28 High). To the downside, the cross finds immediate support at 132.50 (psychological levels), below that 132.28 (daily S2), could act as a major support.
