EUR/JPY: Possible breakout and pullback pattern

The Euro versus the Yen has not been able to break above the 137.00 level, but after the price broke above the 200 period exponential moving average on the 4 hour chart, around the 136.00 level, we can see that it is trying to retrace back to that same zone. It is possible that a breakout and pullback pattern gets completed, and if such event happens, then the price may return to the upside. A good example of a breakout and pullback pattern can be seen a few days back around the 135.00 level, where the price clearly breaks above the 135.00 to pull back to it and continue going higher. The bullish trend is still in place, even though the Stochastics are pointing to the downside, due to the retracement that the price is making at the moment.
