EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Appreciates to near 171.00; next barrier at 23.6% Fibonacci level
- EUR/JPY resists at 171.00 level followed by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement at 171.29 level.
- The cross lies below 9-day EMA, indicating to refrain from buying until the trend shows signs of reversal.
- A break below the 170.00 level could lead the cross to revisit June’s low at 167.52 level.
EUR/JPY edges higher to near 170.90 during the Asian session on Thursday. The daily chart analysis shows that the pair lies below its 9-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), suggesting downward momentum in the short term. This signals that it may be prudent to hold off on buying until the trend shows signs of reversal.
Moreover, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum indicator, is below the 50 level, suggesting a confirmation of a bearish bias for the EUR/JPY cross.
The EUR/JPY cross is likely to test the immediate resistance at the psychological level of 171.00, followed by the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level at 171.29, positioned between the coordinates of 175.43 and 170.01 levels.
Further barrier appears at the 14-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 172.36 level. A breakthrough above this level could lead the EUR/JPY cross to approach the record high of 175.43 level recorded on July 11.
On the downside, the psychological level of 170.00 could act as immediate support. A break below this level could exert downward pressure on the EUR/JPY cross to navigate the area around June’s low at 167.52 level.
