– EURUSD clears important 1.3770 hurdle.
– EURJPY must close above 141.45 for bulls to reengage the trend.
– US economic data on Friday unlikely to dislocate unless significant divergence.

The EURUSD has been frustrating the past few days – mainly because it’s been chopping around in a tight ~100-pip range since mid-February. Although the pair broke 1.3680 to the downside earlier this week, failure to close below on Wednesday and a Hammer reversal pattern on Thursday has helped carry EURUSD to fresh yearly highs.
In EURJPY, price has already been rejected by the 140.80/141.45 zone this week, and we look to this area of interest over the past two months as a necessary hurdle before bulls reengage the longer-term uptrend.
