The USDJPY is currently trading at its highest level in several months, reaching 149,598 USD. This currency pair continues to exhibit strong upward movement within the uptrend channel.
Looking ahead to the next 1-3 weeks, our most recent report was issued last Thursday (September 28), when the spot rate stood at 149.45. The report noted that if the USD remained above 148.55, it could potentially rise further to reach the level of 150.00. On Friday, there was a brief dip in the value of USD to a low of 148.51 before bouncing back.
While there has been some easing in upward momentum, it is still premature to anticipate a significant decline in the value of USD at this time. It is possible for USD to continue moving higher from here; however, any gains are expected within a range between 148.50 and 150.50.
In other words, surpassing and maintaining levels above 150 would be unlikely based on current indicators and trends in this market scenario.
