EUR/JPY Technical Analysis: Bullish above 50-hour MA

• EUR/JPY has breached the two-week-long falling trendline, but the 50-hour moving average (MA) is capping gains.
• A convincing move above the moving average hurdle of 129.50 would validate the upside break of the falling trendline and confirm a bullish reversal. In this case, the EUR/JPY could move above 130.00 (psychological level).
