The forecast for the EUR/JPY remains bearish due to the ongoing risk of intervention by the Bank of Japan. The Tenkan-sen and the Kijun-sen continue to move lower after a bearish crossover. With mounting bearish pressure, the flat Senkou Span A and Senkou Span B of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo Cloud could begin to descend, adding more downside momentum. Traders should also monitor the CCI in extreme oversold territory, which may rise to challenge the -100 level before retreating. This technical indicator may trade below -100 for an extended period.
