Additionally, the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains above the 50 level, confirming the bullish sentiment for the EUR/JPY cross. A further move toward the 70 level would strengthen the upside trend for the currency cross.
On the upside, the EUR/JPY cross may explore the area around its eight-week high at 163.89, which was recorded on August 15. A break above this level could lead the currency cross to test the upper boundary of the ascending channel around the level of 164.50.
