EUR/JPY – 30M – BUY

The EUR/JPY 30-minute chart has fired a dense cluster of bullish signals, including a Trendline Break Up, BOP Zero Cross Up, CCI OS Exit, MOM Zero Cross Up, ROC Zero Cross Up, ROCR Cross Up, STOCH KD Cross Up, and WILLR OS Exit, among others. This suggests a strong short-term momentum shift to the upside, likely a counter-trend bounce within a broader bearish structure. The confluence of multiple oscillator and momentum indicators exiting oversold conditions points to a potential relief rally, with the nearest resistance at 179.47200 as the immediate upside target.

However, the broader trend across higher timeframes remains firmly bearish, with the 4-hour and 8-hour charts showing extremely strong and very strong downtrends, respectively. The 1-hour and 2-hour trends are also bearish, though the 1-hour is only a solid trend. This creates a conflict between the short-term bullish signal and the higher-timeframe bearish momentum. The nearest support at 177.84400 is a critical level; if the bounce fails and price breaks below this, the bullish signal would be invalidated. Traders should watch for a potential retest of the broken trendline and resistance zone, and be cautious of the prevailing downtrend on higher timeframes.
