Analysis and Recommendations:

The EUR/JPY at 97.23 as the euro continues to weaken with little results from the Eurogroup meeting and the German courts delaying their decision on the emergency fund, there is little hope for any of the plans from the EU to move forward.

Traders are closely watching the BoJ meeting which begins today, but not much is expected. The BoJ has sidestepped the economy and monetary stimulus at their last few meetings. In their last meeting they mentioned that they wanted to wait to see the outcome from the Greek elections, which has now passed.

The euro will most likely remain weak, and be subjective to new flows
