EUR/JPY Price Analysis: Cross gains ground with subtle consolidation signs

• The daily RSI is pointing upwards, hovering around 70, but continuing red bars in the MACD show a trailing consolidation.
• On the hourly chart, indicators are neutral and reside in the positive terrain.
• The 20-day SMA at 169.00 serves as an important threshold for sellers.

On Friday’s trading session, despite recent downside corrections, the EUR/JPY pair managed to reclaim its stance above 170.00. This indicates a shifting of the bearish momentum observed on Thursday when the pair marked a daily low at 169.00.

The daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) has pivoted, now pointing upwards near 70, suggesting a possible reversal. However, the MACD is still printing red bars, confirming that the pair is in a consolidation phase with limited upside. These mixed signals necessitate following the pair closely to determine if this marks a fresh bullish momentum or merely a pause in a more pronounced downward correction.
