EUR/JPY Technical Analysis: Tumbles to fresh weekly lows as the ECB presser gets underway


   •  The cross once again faced rejection near the key 125.00 psychological mark, for the third time over the past one week, and seems to have formed a bearish double-top pattern on the short-term charts.

   •  A subsequent fall below 200-hour SMA and near two-week-old ascending trend-line support paves the way for an extension of the intraday bearish slide amid a more dovish shift by the ECB President M. Draghi.

   •  Technical indicators on hourly charts have been gaining negative momentum and reinforce the bearish set-up, supporting prospects for further weakness towards last week's swing low, around mid-123.00s.
