Range traders can take advantage of the EURJPY's 900 pip range as long as it holds. Beware that an upside break could see a run-up to 140.
5 waves down from 170 warns of a corrective rally into the 141.78-145.74 zone as a correction of the drop from 1.70. Near term, the pair could drop below 121.35 before strength resumes.
Corrections unfold in 3 waves and the rally from 113.59 is the first wave of the expected 3 wave rally. The consolidation since 131 may be forming a triangle, although a drop below 121.35 is possible before the final leg of the rally (wave c) begins and eventually breaks above 131. From a strategic point of view, one can play the range between roughly 122-131 as long as it holds.
