- EUR/JPY waiting for a direction
- Straddle setup in EUR/JPY (H4)
Chart 1: EUR/JPY H4 chart
With the lack of major price moving fundamental news or data releases from the eurozone, EUR/JPY has been moving across within a 45pips range since the start of this month. Our Bollinger Bands are displaying a sign of Bollinger Squeeze, indicating low trading volatility in EUR/JPY. No strong momentum in either direction can be seen right now as the market is waiting for a catalyst.
Despite the low trading volatility, we are still able to take advantage of this situation to profit from either direction when EUR/JPY starts moving. With the series of economic data releases from the eurozone next week, we are likely going to see more movements coming in for EUR/JPY.
