EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Extends win streak to four days, eyes on 166.00

  • EUR/JPY trades at 165.16, up 0.06% early Tuesday, extending 4-day rally.
  • RSI favors buyers, but lack of momentum points to wait-and-see mode.
  • Break above 165.30 could expose Nov. 6 high at 166.09, then 167.00.
  • Drop below 165.00 opens path to support at 164.03 and 163.60.

EUR/JPY prolongs its rally to four straight days as Tuesday’s Asian session begins. At the time of writing, the cross-pair exchange hands at 165.16, up 0.06%, and is up 0.09% in the week so far.

EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook

The EUR/JPY is neutral to upward biased, but so far, it has remained trapped within the 164.50-165.30 range for the last three days, indicating a lack of conviction among buyers and sellers regarding the cross-pair. Momentum-wise, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) suggests that buyers are in control but are taking a respite, awaiting a fresh catalyst.

If EUR/JPY clears the year-to-date high, this would pave the way for a test of the November 6 high at 166.09. Once surpassed, the next stop would be 167.00. On the other hand, if EUR/JPY tumbles beneath the 165.00 mark, look for a test of the Tenkan-sen at 164.03, followed by the Senkou Span A at 163.60.
