The EUR/JPY pair has displayed a juggernaut run as the Bank of Japan (BOJ) has kept the monetary policy unchanged. BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda has kept the interest rate unchanged at -0.1% and the 10-year Japan Government bonds (JGBs) target at around 0%.
Investors are expecting cues about an exit from the decade-long ultra-easy monetary policy, however, an unchanged policy stance has weakened the Japanese Yen.
On an hourly scale, EUR/JPUY has recovered dramatically after forming a Triple Bottom chart pattern. The formation of the aforementioned chart pattern around 138.00 is demonstrating a sheer bullish reversal. The cross has surpassed the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 140.00 in one go and is expected to extend gains further, considering the momentum in the north-side move.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has aggressively entered into the bullish range of 60.00-80.00, which indicates more upside ahead.
