EURJPY had a very strong short-term up-movement, especially due to a very weak Japanese Yen in the past 2 days. In the long term, I still believe that the market is bearish:
We have the chance to trade the rejection on a very good level of resistance. Although the first reaction is promising, we have a bearish engulfing pattern, the market is coming from a very strong up-movement, so I want to wait for a second confirmation. There's a candlestick (the one where the red horizontal line starts) that shows a first attempt by sellers to push the price down, but buyers proved to be strong enough and we had a so-called pin bar. This is a second attempt and we want to see sellers closing the session below the low formed by last attempt, so I place a stop entry order below it, below the red horizontal line. Stop loss above the resistance and take profit slightly above last important long-term swing low, where I will evaluate if it is better to take the profits or keep the trade for a breakout and a new lower low.
