EURJPY broke below sideways chop last night when it was announced that OIL production cut back negotiations failed. There was a gap on JPY pairs and today early correction has closed most of gaps. JPY and OIL correlation links back to Risk-off sentiment, as Oil price drops, some sectors of Equities drop. So If Oil is dropping, inflation expectations would drop, which is not necessarily a good thing for Equities. In that environment risk-off prevails, and JPY gets stronger.
Technically EURJPY broke below sideways chop range (red rectangle) and if risk off sentiment prevails EURJPY could reject from POC (50.0, Doji, previous breakout point L3 ) within 122.55-70 else any breakout of 122.90 towards 123.05 zone might put the pair back into the sideways chop range. If we see a rejection 122.14 and 121.72 are targets for another bearish support retest.
