EUR/JPY finds support after JPY lead by USD weakness

As explained by Matt Bacon-Hall of FXBeat earlier, the VIX is at historic lows today, indicating complacency in the market, and by virtue, strength in risk sentiment and dollar weakness. This saw JPY strength, with USD/JPY dropping below the psychological 100.00 level. EUR/JPY followed suit, but found support at the 1 hour 50 SMA, before edging higher to approach its morning high.
