The EUR/JPY pair has rallied a bit over the last several hours, and I believe it is trying to cause a bit of a bounce from extreme lows. Because of this, I am watching this pair, as the Euro itself found significant support against the USD at 1.05 or later in the day.

EUR/JPY Analysis
This is a countertrend trade, and as a result I am not overly excited about it. This is why I suggest only risking 0.33% of your account. However, it looks as if the Japanese yen is going to be sold off, so I feel that this move is probably less about the EUR and more about the JPY. As far as economic announcements are concerned, most that happened during the day can only benefit the EUR as opposed to hurting it. German business climate numbers will be interesting as well as some other mid-grade announcements.
