EURJPY Technical Analysis – 30-September-2024
The recent sharp dip in the EUR/JPY value resulted in the Stochastic Oscillator dropping below the 20 level, signaling an oversold market. Additionally, the price is below the 50-period simple moving average and is positioned to break below the 100-period SMA, which serves as resistance.

EURJPY Forecast – 30-September-2024
The September 19 high at 160.0 is the immediate resistance, backed by the 50-period SMA. From a technical perspective, the downtrend will likely resume if the EUR/JPY price holds below 160.0. The next bearish target in this scenario could be the September 16 low at 155.5.
Furthermore, if the selling pressure pulls the price below 155.5, the next support level will be 154.4, representing the August 2024 low. Please note that the bearish market would be invalidated if the EUR/JPY price stabilizes above 163.0.
