EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Eyes 184.00 barrier after breaking above moving averages

  • EUR/JPY eyes initial resistance at the 184.00 psychological level.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index at 54 signals modest bullish momentum.
  • Immediate support stands at the nine-day EMA near 182.94.

EUR/JPY gains ground for the second successive session, trading around 183.70 during the Asian hours on Wednesday. The technical analysis of the daily chart shows the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 54 stays above its midline and turns higher, indicating modest bullish pressure while leaving room for further gains if buyers regain control.

The EUR/JPY cross holds a neutral-to-bullish tone as price consolidates above the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), keeping the broader uptrend structure intact despite recent pullbacks from the 186.00 region. The nine-day EMA has flattened just below spot, reflecting loss of immediate upside momentum rather than a clear bearish reversal.

On the upside, initial resistance lies at the psychological level of 184.00. Further advances would support the EUR/JPY cross to approach the all-time high of 186.88, reached on January 23.

Immediate support emerges at the nine-day EMA at 182.94, which protects the sequence of higher daily lows and aligns with the underlying 50-day EMA at 182.85 backdrop. Further declines below the averages would weaken the momentum and expose a two-month low at 180.81, recorded on February 12, with deeper support seen at a four-month low at 175.70.

AUD/USD seems vulnerable near 0.6800, 10-month low amid bullish USD

AUD/USD languishes near a 10-month low during the Asian session on Friday, awaiting a break below 0.6800 before the next leg up amid a bullish US Dollar. Firming Fed rate-hike expectations, along with fading hopes for US-Iran diplomacy, help the USD hold gains at its highest level since April 2025. Moreover, the RBA’s dovish tilt undermines the Aussie and backs the case for further losses.

USD/JPY bulls turn cautious near 160.00 amid intervention risks

USD/JPY enters a bullish consolidation phase around its highest level since early September as bulls turn cautious amid intervention risk near 160.00. Meanwhile, the downside seems cushioned as the wide US-Japan interest rate gap keeps the Yen carry trade active. Furthermore, the possibility of a jumbo Fed rate hike and Middle East uncertainties hold the US Dollar near a 19-month top, supporting the currency pair.



Gold sticks to gains above $3,900; bulls lack conviction as Fed and Iran risks support USD

Gold clings to modest recovery gains above the $3,900 mark during the Asian session, snapping its three-day losing streak to the lowest level since late September set the previous day. The US Dollar takes a breather after a strong three-day rally to its highest level since April 2025, offering some support to the commodity. However, firming US Federal Reserve rate-hike expectations and Middle East uncertainties continue to support the Greenback. This keeps a lid on any further upside for the precious metal.

Bitcoin slips below $70,000 for the first time since August
