EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Falls to near 183.00 near symmetrical triangle bottom

  • EUR/JPY tests the immediate support at the lower boundary of the symmetrical triangle around 182.90.
  • The 14-day Relative Strength Index at 37.31 signals slowing downside momentum.
  • The initial barrier is the nine-day EMA at 184.72.

EUR/JPY extends its losses for the second successive day, trading around 183.00 during the Asian hours on Thursday. Technical analysis of the daily chart indicates the currency cross remains within a symmetrical triangle, signalling a consolidation phase.

However, the EUR/JPY cross is retaining a bearish near-term bias as it holds beneath both the nine-period and 50-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). The short- and medium-term EMAs now cap the topside and suggest that rallies are likely to be sold, while the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 37.31 is edging toward oversold territory, hinting that downside momentum is slowing rather than reversing.

The EUR/JPY cross tests the immediate support at the lower boundary of the symmetrical triangle around 182.90. A break below the triangle would strengthen the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the cross to navigate the region around the nine-month low of 179.37, recorded on August 3.

On the upside, the EUR/JPY cross could target the initial barrier at the nine-day EMA of 184.72, aligned with the 50-day EMA of 184.76. Further resistance lies at the upper boundary of the symmetrical triangle around 185.80. A break above the triangle could support the currency cross to reach the all-time high of 187.95 set on April 17.
