EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Bearish sentiment takes over, 20-day SMA lost
- The daily RSI for EUR/JPY highlights a decline from overbought levels to negative territory, depicting seller dominance.
- Similar to the RSI, the daily MACD shows increasing negative momentum.
- On the hourly chart, low RSI values and a flat red MACD histogram point to a growing near-term bearishness.
The EUR/JPY pair trades at 164.65, tallying sharp losses on Thursday. Despite the increasing selling pressure, the long-term optimism remains intact, but bears are making their case as they reclaimed the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) which worsened the outlook for the short term.
On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for EUR/JPY has descended from the overbought readings into negative territory. The data suggests a downward momentum, indicative of a current dominant presence of sellers. At the same time, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) histogram recorded fresh red bars which confirms a growing negative momentum.

From a broader viewpoint, the EUR/JPY experienced a significant shift, falling below the 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). This suggests potential short-term bearishness but as long as the pair maintains positions above the more extended 100 and 200-day SMAs, the overall outlook will be positive.
