EUR/JPY consolidates near 7-month lows
FXStreet (Córdoba) - EUR/JPY managed to move off fresh 7-month lows scored on Monday, but the recovery lacked follow-through and entered a consolidation phase just above the 131.00 level.
Despite having recovered from a low of 130.63, the upside has remained capped by 131.80 as the euro failed to stage a steeper comeback amid speculations the ECB could extend its quantitative easing (QE) program at its December meeting.

At time of writing, EUR/JPY is trading at 131.60, up 0.18% on the day. In terms of technical levels, next supports are seen at 131.10 (Nov 18 low), 130.63 (Nov 16 low) and 130.24 (Apr 29 low).
