EUR/JPY traded around 186.60 during Asian hours on Wednesday, following modest gains in the previous day, and maintained a bullish near-term tone as it held above both the nine-period and 50-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) [1]. The alignment of short- and medium-term EMAs below the price suggests ongoing upside pressure, while the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) around 60 indicates a constructive bias without signaling overbought conditions [1].
Technical analysis on the daily chart reveals that EUR/JPY remains within a rising wedge pattern, which signals a strong risk of bearish reversal. The currency pair may test initial resistance at the upper boundary of the wedge near 187.00, and a successful break above this level could support a move toward the all-time high of 187.95, recorded on April 17 [1]. On the downside, primary support is seen at the nine-day EMA (186.18), the wedge bottom (185.60), and the 50-day EMA (185.39). A break below this confluence support zone could trigger a bearish emergence, potentially pushing EUR/JPY toward the five-month low of 181.87 (March 16) and the seven-month low of 180.81 [1].
The Euro's performance against major currencies today shows it was the weakest against the Swiss Franc, with a percentage change of -0.07% versus CHF.

CONCLUSION
EUR/JPY is maintaining a bullish tone above key moving averages, but technical patterns suggest a risk of bearish reversal if support levels are breached. The pair is approaching resistance at 187.00, with potential to retest its all-time high if momentum continues. Market sentiment is cautiously optimistic, but traders should monitor for signs of reversal within the rising wedge pattern.
