Predicting continuation of the uptrend
EUR/JPY is a forex quote that represents the exchange rate between the Euro and the Japanese Yen. Traders like to borrow the low-yielding Yen to fund carry trades and buy higher-yielding currencies like the Euro during times of optimism. However, during times of market stress, investors tend to avoid carry trades. EUR/JPY is affected by shifts in global economic performance and stability. The Eurozone debt crisis and the Bank of Japan's anti-deflation policy introduced in 2013 also contribute to the pair's volatility.
