EUR/JPY gains after registering little losses in the previous day, trading at 187.83, an all-time high, during the Asian hours on Friday. The technical analysis of the daily chart indicates the currency cross is trending higher within an ascending channel, signaling a persistent bullish bias.
The EUR/JPY cross retains a bullish near-term bias as it holds above both the nine-day and 50-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs). The rising EMAs suggest underlying demand remains in control.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands in overbought territory near 71, hinting that upside momentum is strong but vulnerable to bouts of corrective consolidation.
The EUR/JPY cross may target the immediate resistance at the psychological level of 188.00, followed by the upper boundary of the ascending channel around 188.50.
On the downside, the EUR/JPY cross may find its primary support at the nine-day EMA of 186.76. A move below this level could weaken the short-term price momentum, exposing the lower ascending channel boundary around 185.80, followed by the 50-day EMA at 184.46.
