EURJPY Rises to 166 Barrier as Eurozone Inflation Surges

EUR/JPY formed a bearish engulfing candlestick pattern near the 166.7 resistance. The bull market will likely resume if buyers close above the 166.71 resistance level.

On the flip side, If bears (sellers) close and stabilize the EUR/JPY price below the 163.75 mark, a new bearish wave will likely form that could target the October 17 low at 161.9.

Note
FxNews—The bearish engulfing candlestick pattern came into play and blocked bulls from surpassing the 166.71 immediate resistance.

As of this writing, EUR/JPY is testing the 165.0 critical support, while technical indicators suggest the downtrend should resume.

From a technical perspective, if bears close and stabilize the price below the 165.0 support, a new bearish wave will likely emerge, which could spread to the 163.75 mark.
