EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Climbs above 164.00 with bulls eyeing YTD high

  • EUR/JPY breaks above Tenkan-Sen, eyes 165.00 potential.
  • Holding above 164.00 may lead to testing yearly highs.
  • Bears aim below 164.00 for reversal; Tenkan-Sen, Kijun-Sen as supports.

The Euro posted solid gains against the Japanese Yen (JPY) on Wednesday, amid an improvement in risk appetite and the dovish stance adopted by the Bank of Japan (BoJ) despite rising interest rates. At the time of writing, the EUR/JPY trades at 164.25, up 0.67%.

EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Technical outlook

Euro bulls re-entered the market, lifting the EUR/JPY pair above the Tenkan-Sen a 163.71, which opened the door to reclaim the 164.00 mark. That suggests that buyers are gathering steam, which would open the door to challenge the 165.00 mark. A breach of the latter will expose the year-to-date (YTD) high of 165.34.

On the flip side, sellers must drag prices below 164.00 to challenge the new Tenkan-Sen level at 163.71, the next support level. Once surpassed, traders could test the Senkou Span Aat 163.25, followed by the Kijun-Sen level at 162.78.

On the daily chart, technical analysis indicates a persistent bullish bias, as the pair moves upward within the ascending channel pattern. Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index at 68.89 sits near overbought, signaling strong demand. RSI remains elevated, which could cap gains if overbought conditions emerge.

GBP/USD knocks ten-week highs ahead of holiday slowdown

GBP/USD found room on the high side on Monday, kicking off a holiday-shortened trading week with a fresh spat of Greenback weakness, bolstering the Pound Sterling into its highest bids in ten weeks. Pound traders are largely brushing off the latest interest rate cut from the Bank of England as the UK’s central bank policy strategy leaves the water murky for rate-cut watchers.

Gold bulls seem unstoppable amid supportive fundamental backdrop

Gold is seen building on the previous day's strong rally of over 2% and continues scaling new all-time highs for the second consecutive day on Tuesday. The commodity climbs closer to the $4,500 psychological mark during the Asian session and remains well supported by a combination of factors. 

Uniswap holds above $6 as traders eye UNIfication vote outcome

Traders are focusing on the highly anticipated UNIfication proposal, which is set to conclude on Thursday, and could become a key near-term catalyst. On the technical side, momentum indicators are flashing bullish signals, hinting at an upside rally.

Ten questions that matter going into 2026

2026 may be less about a neat “base case” and more about a regime shift—the market can reprice what matters most (growth, inflation, fiscal, geopolitics, concentration). The biggest trap is false comfort: the same trades can look defensive… right up until they become crowded.

XRP steadies above $1.90 support as fund inflows and retail demand rise

Ripple (XRP) is stable above support at $1.90 at the time of writing on Monday, after several attempts to break above the $2.00 hurdle failed to materialize last week. Meanwhile, institutional interest in the cross-border remittance token has remained steady.
