Euro and UJ
USD/JPY is stuck in the range of 90.50 and 89.80. Waiting for a clear breakout and entry on the pullback bounce from the SR level. Currently we are seeing both USD and JPY strength due to the risk aversion nature of the market.
Euro has finally reach the 1.3900-1.3800. 1.3800 is an important support, 50% fibo point.

Euro's fall
The euro fell broadly on Wednesday, hitting a four-month low against the dollar on concern about Greece's fiscal problems and breaking below a key chart level that could signal a bearish trend for the currency.
The euro's slide below its 200-day moving average of around $1.4296 initially gave investors a technical sign to sell the currency, and its break below $1.4250 and the December low near $1.4220 later triggered loss-cutting orders and sparked broad euro-selling, traders said.
