EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Bears maintain near-term dominance, bulls must defend 20-day SMA

  • On the daily chart, indicators point to a possible shift towards negative momentum.
  • On the hourly chart, the RSI and MACD regain negative ground.
  • The bulls need to safely hold the 20-day SMA to avoid further declines.

In the Wednesday session, the EUR/JPY pair is trading with slight losses at 163.75. Despite the uncertainties, the overall market sentiment seems to favor buyers, given the pair's dominant position above its key 20,100 and 200-day simple moving averages (SMA). However, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signal an upcoming change in momentum, hinting at increasing selling pressure.

On the daily chart, the RSI indicators remain in positive territory, with a bearish trend that could indicate a possible change to a negative trend. On the other hand, the MACD prints decreasing green bars, further reinforcing the weakening bullish momentum.
