All eyes on ECB

EUR/JPY climbed to 138.28 on Wednesday, but failed to stay above 138.00 and finished the day at 137.79. The bearish dynamics during European hours was caused by JPY strengthening on the back of geopolitical jitters. BoJ published its monetary policy decision, but EUR/JPY reaction was muted. The cross may weaken slightly ahead of European opening, but the large movements are unlikely as the market is waiting for ECB monetary policy decision and Draghi’s press-conference. Though it is widely expected to be a non-event, the suspense is building. From the technical point of view, the upside is capped by 138.00, once it is broken, 138.28 (Wednesday’s high) will come into play. On the downside the support is seen at 137.68 and followed by 137.50
