EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Door open for a test of 133.00

EUR/JPY extends the upside to 132.50, new YTD highs..
The next target of note now comes in at the 133.00 mark.

Pablo Piovano FXStreet

EUR/JPY adds to the strong recovery and manages to break above the key 132.00 barrier and record new 2021 highs in the 132.50/55 band on Monday.

If the buying impulse gathers extra pace the cross could attempt a move to the 133.00 neighbourhood ahead of the September 2018 high at 133.13. Further gains remain likely while above the immediate support line (off the March lows) near 130.30. This area is also reinforced by the 50-day SMA.

In the broader picture, while above the 200-day SMA at 126.50 the broader outlook for the cross should remain constructive.

AUD/USD remains under presure above 0.7000; focus on data

AUD/USD has met some renewed selling pressure on Thursday, coming down from tops near 0.7040 to revisit the 0.7000 region ahead of the opening bell in Asia. The pair’s daily decline has come despite a lacklustre performance in the Greenback at the time when investors continued to monitor developments from the Middle East. Looking ahead, the release of flash PMIs will grab the attention in Oz at the end of the week.

USD/JPY declines to a one-week low; eyes trading range support near 157.50 on weaker USD

USD/JPY drops to a one-week low during Thursday’s Asian session, with bears now awaiting a break below multi-week range support near mid-157.00s before placing fresh bets amid a broadly weaker US Dollar. Despite bets for a December Fed rate hike and Middle East jitters, the recent decline in US bond yields keeps USD depressed near a three-week low. Moreover, hawkish BoJ expectations and intervention risks underpin the Japanese Yen, further weighing on the currency pair.

Gold remains offered just above $4,000

Gold prices resume their decline on Thursday, easing toward the area of two-month lows around $4,050 per troy ounce. Higher crude oil prices have reignited speculation of further tightening by the Fed, supporting the US Dollar and weighing on the precious metal.

The estimates keep falling: Why Bitcoin's quantum countdown is accelerating

The threat that Artificial Intelligence (AI) and quantum computing pose to Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies in general is no longer a matter of if hardware will catch up; it is a matter of when. Advances in AI-assisted research are adding a new dimension to the quantum computing threat, although neither technology can currently break Bitcoin’s cryptography on its own.

The Bank of England just got its clearest reason to hike. Here's what it's really watching

UK inflation as measured by the CPI accelerated to 3.5% YoY in September, up from 3.1% in August, according to the Office for National Statistics. This is the highest level since October 2025, exceeding economists' expectations of 3.4% and pushing inflation further from the BoE's 2% target.

What November 3 means for the Fed's rate path and the US Dollar

The USD faces a decisive period ahead of the November 3 midterm elections. While markets anticipate another interest rate increase from the Fed in December, the battle for control of Congress could reshape fiscal policy expectations and, indirectly, the path of US monetary policy in 2027.
