EUR/JPY Price Forecast: Tests nine-day EMA support near 180.00

- EUR/JPY is testing the immediate support at the nine-day EMA of 180.12.
- The 14-day Relative Strength Index at 42.47 indicates lingering downside pressure.
- A rebound above the nine-day EMA could trigger a bullish reversal toward the 50-day EMA at 182.31.
EUR/JPY has pared back its recent gains from the previous day, trading around 180.10 during Asian hours on Friday. Technical analysis of the daily chart shows that the currency cross continues to trade within a descending channel pattern, pointing to a persistent bearish outlook.
The EUR/JPY cross is retaining a bearish near-term bias as it holds below the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA). Price sits directly on the nine-day EMA, turning it into a short-term pivot, while the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 42.47 remains below the neutral 50 mark, which suggests lingering downside pressure rather than a decisive recovery.
The EUR/JPY cross is testing the immediate support at the nine-day EMA of 180.12. A successful break below the short-term price average would reinforce the bearish bias and put downward pressure on the currency cross to navigate the region around the lower boundary of the descending channel at 177.00, followed by an 11-month low of 175.70, recorded in November 2025.
On the upside, a rebound above the nine-day EMA could cause the bullish reversal and support the currency cross to test the 50-day EMA at 182.31. Further resistance lies at the upper boundary of the descending channel around 184.80, followed by the all-time high of 187.95 set on April 17.
