  "summary": "The EUR/JPY currency pair is approaching a critical resistance level near 185.00, as the cross is nearing the confluence of the 50- and 100-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) around 184.72/73. While the pair has gained two consecutive days, buyers failed to make significant progress on Tuesday, facing resistance at the 184.70 area. A decisive break above the confluence of the 50- and 100-day SMAs could open the door for EUR/JPY to challenge the 185.00 level, with traders then eyeing the next cycle high at 187.47. Conversely, the first support for EUR/JPY is the 200-day SMA at 184.05, with the next areas of interest being the May 6 swing low of 182.05 and the August 3 low of 179.37.",
