USD/JPY Trend Today - Further Downward?

238
🔔🔔🔔USD/JPY news:

👉The USD/JPY pair continues its downward trend for the second consecutive day, edging closer to the multi-month low reached last week following Trump's warning to Japan about the weak yen. Additionally, rising expectations of further interest rate hikes by the Bank of Japan (BoJ) and a broader risk-off sentiment are bolstering demand for the safe-haven JPY.

👉Market consensus is strengthening around the likelihood of the BoJ tightening its monetary policy further, supporting elevated Japanese government bond (JGB) yields and reinforcing the yen’s strength.

👉As Tuesday’s Asian session begins, USD/JPY remains steady after Monday’s 0.74% decline. Weak US economic data, along with the imposition of tariffs on Mexico, Canada, and China starting March 4, keep the US dollar under pressure against most G7 currencies. The pair is currently trading at 148.85.

Personal opinion:
👉Momentum is still tilted to the downside, as described by RSI (2H) about to enter the overbought zone. Be careful with this because there may be a reversal to the upside, before continuing the downtrend. So watch the price well to enter a Sell order

Analysis:
👉Based on important resistance - support levels combined with trend lines and SMA to come up with a suitable strategy.

Plan:

🔆Price Zone Setup:

👉Buy USD/JPY 149.85 – 150.00
❌SL: 150.5 | ✅TP: 149.30 – 148.70 – 1.47.50
