EUR/JPY skyrocketed and pinned fresh yearly high

The good macro data from the euro area released today fuelled the euro bulls and the EUR/JPY pair skyrocketed and marked its highest level for more than a year at 125.80.
After the first lap of the French elections the pair made sharp U turn and since then we are witnessing strong rally, which is clearly seen on the daily graphic. Technical indicators are showing extreme overbought conditions, but yet are aiming higher, so the pair is poised to extend the rally before correcting.





The short term outlook also remains bullish. The four-hour time frame is showing that the price is strongly moving above the100-day SMA and today has crossed to above and the 20-day SMA. RSI and stochastic had retreated slightly but yet are located within extreme overbought area. 
The pair is facing strong resistance at 126.25 – April’s 2016 high and in case bulls succeed to conquer it, next target is seen at 126.90.
