USDJPY Outlook 28 March 2023*slightly messy chart*
Mistakenly used this analysis profile during the live stream, but it still presents several very valid points.
Yesterday the USDJPY was trading higher bouncing off the 130.60 price level, and climbing steadily to the 131.70 price level, despite the consolidation on the DXY.
The 131.70 price level was crucial as it coincided with
- 61.80% Fibonacci retracement level
- bearish trendline
- formation of the inverted head and shoulder pattern
With the anticipation for a resumption of weakness on the DXY, we were looking for the price to reverse from the bearish trendline to trade back down to the 129.80 price level, with a slight hesitation at 130.60.
At the current price level, with the USDJPY sitting above 130.60, a continuation to the downside can be expected, especially if the DXY continues to weaken.
Look for the price to retest the key support level of 129.80. Although the next support level is at 128.15 (last tested in February) it is unlikely that the price could reach this level by today.

USDJPY Outlook 27 March 2023Initial expectation was for the USDJPY to break below the 130 support level and trade significantly to the downside, with the next key support level at 128.13.
However, on Friday, the DXY recovered in strength which saw the USDJPY bounce from the 130 support level to trade up toward the 131 interim resistance level.
While the bearish trendline continues to apply downward pressure on the USDJPY, look for price to break above 131 to climb toward 132 which would coincide with the 61.8% fibonacci retracement level and the bearish trendline.
However, any moves to the upside could be brief with the USDJPY likely to continue trading lower, toward the 130 and 128 key support levels.
USDJPY Potential Sell Flash Manufacturing PMI | 24th March 2023Fundamental Backdrop
1. JPY Flash Manufacturing PMI, a leading indicator of economic health, increased from 47.7 to 48.6.
2. Actual result is also better than the expected 48.2
3. Last time we saw better results was in October and November 2021, which saw a 40 - 80 pip drop
4. Bias for today is medium bearish.
Technical Confluences
1. Price in a strong bearish trend with price under the Ichimoku cloud
2. H4 supply zone at 131.100
3. Intermediate support at 130.600
4. Next support at 129.800.
Idea
Scenario 1:
Looking for price to tap into the H4 supply zone at 131.100 before heading towards the intermediate support at 130.600
Scenario 2:
I am looking for price to break the intermediate support at 130.600 before heading toward the next support at 129.800.

USDJPY Outlook 24th March 2023The USDJPY continues to trade lower, as the price maintains within the bearish channel.
Following the weakness of the DXY from the FOMC decision, the USDJPY reversed strongly from the 133 price level to trade down to the current price level and key support level of 130.
If the DXY continues to weaken, look for the USDJPY to break below the immediate support level of 130 to trade down to the next support level of 128, which aligns with the lower bound of the bearish channel.
However, as prices reach toward levels last tested in February, anticipate significant choppy price action
USDJPY January's Support is being testedThe USDJPY pair is testing the Rising Support from the January 15th Low for the first time since the February 2nd Low.
This is a standard case of breakout trading.
The price has been under the MA50 (4h) for 2 weeks.
Trading Plan:
1. Buy as long as the Rising Support holds.
2. Sell if the Rising Support breaks (i.e. closes a candle under it).
Targets:
1. 134.000 (Fibonacci 0.5 and MA200 (4h)).
2. 127.500 (Support (1)).
Tips:
1. The RSI (4h) is consolidating for the past 10 days. This shows loss of strength on the current trend, which means that a rebound might have a slight edge at the moment.

USDJPY Fundamental Analysis | 03/23/23On Thursday, the Japanese stock market experienced a decline as the Nikkei 225 Index fell by 0.17% to close at 27,420 points, and the broader Topix Index dropped by 0.29% to 1,957 points. This reversal was due to Wall Street's negative trend, following the Federal Reserve's decision to raise interest rates by 25 basis points. The Fed Chair Jerome Powell indicated that there will not be any rate cuts this year, and if needed, rates may rise higher than expected. This decision affected financial stocks as Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen informed lawmakers that the US government was not planning to provide a "blanket insurance" for bank deposits. Moreover, Japanese manufacturers remained pessimistic for the third consecutive month in March due to concerns about slowing global growth, which could affect the country's export-heavy industries. As a result, financial, healthcare, and technology stocks experienced losses, with Mitsubishi UFJ (-1.4%), Takeda Pharmaceutical (-2.6%), and Keyence (-1.6%) being among the hardest hit. The Japanese yen strengthened to 131 per dollar, the highest in 5 weeks following the US Federal Reserve's rate hike decision. During the press conference, Fed Chair Powell explained that the pause in hiking rates was to address the banking crises. On the domestic front, the Bank of Japan's minutes from its January meeting indicated that members reiterated the need to maintain ultra-easy policies to achieve the 2% inflation target in a sustainable and stable manner. In this regard, the BOJ left its policy of ultra-low interest rates unchanged this month at Governor Haruhiko Kuroda's final policy meeting before his retirement. Looking ahead, Trading Economics global macro models and analysts expect the Japanese Stock Market Index to trade at 27,279.95 points by the end of this quarter and 24,842.68 in 12 months time. Additionally, the Japanese Yen is expected to trade at 137.83 by the end of this quarter and 146.74 in 12 months time.
USDJPY Potential Downsides as we approach FOMCHey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring USDJPY for a selling opportunity around 133.8 zone, USDJPY is trading in a downtrend and extending pullbacks seems to be approaching the major trend around 133.8 Support and Resistance zone.
Fundamentally the Market is expecting rates cut and fed pivot. more of a dovish Fomc gives us more of a weak Dollar and considering that JPY is considered a safe haven in this type of environment USDJPY shorts should be a perfect catch.
Trade safe, Joe.
USDJPY a test of the 50% 🦐USDJPY on the 4h chart after the recent test of the daily resistance at 138 level has dropped perfectly at the 50% retracement of the major impulse.
The market retested the 134 area and is now moving over the support at the 0.5 Fibonacci level.
According to the Plancton's strategy IF the market will break below we can consider a nice short order according to the MTB strategy rules.
USDJPYHi
USDJPY has been examined in different dimensions:
1- Strong supply and demand levels that I identify with my own indicator and system.
2- The structure of recently formed waves
3- Current market momentum
4- The structure of classical and price patterns
In this idea, I identified the direction of the market in different ways and in the second step, I analyzed the potential of continuation or reversal. Usually, paying attention to the trend and strength of the trend can greatly increase the accuracy of the analysis.
In general, I tried to describe the continuation of the movement in the simplest possible way in the diagram.
⚠️ Disclaimer:
This is a personal opinion and you are responsible for any trading decisions.
USDJPY Outlook 20th March 2023Similar to the price action on Gold, as uncertainty in the market grows and confidence over the banking structure weakens, investors are seen shifting towards reserve commodity and currencies.
This is why the Yen has strengthened, together with the weakening of the DXY, leading to the USDJPY being pressured to trade steadily lower.
The USDJPY currently trading at the 132 price level could see further downside
- if the price maintains below the bearish trendline, and
- if the price breaks below the 131.50 support level.
Downside potential could see the USDJPY reach the 129.80 support level which was last tested in February.
Alternatively, if the USDJPY bounces strongly from the 131.50 support level, the immediate resistance level is at 133.75 which coincides with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level (with an interim resistance level at 132.60)
USDJPY More Downside Potential, Wait For Sell Setup
USDJPY has been pushing down since it hits the previous highs to form a double top.
With a ascending channel correction, price indeed reversed down impulsively, and form continuation correction along the way.
Bow that we have push down more, and another consolidation has formed, usually give us a indication of more downside opportunity.
Wait for current correction to complete to push the price down even more to previous lows.
USDJPY Potential UpsidesHey Traders, in the coming week we are monitoring USDJPY for a buying opportunity around 129.5 zone, USDJPY is trading in an uptrend and extending pullbacks seems to be approaching the trend around 129.5 support and resistance zone. once the bulls are confirmed i would set 137 as a long term Target as it's considered the next major resistance zone USDJPY will be facing.
Trade safe, Joe.
USDJPY Closing of the 1day MA50 is what mattersSo far the 1day MA50 has been supporting the USDJPY, exactly on Fibonacci 0.5 and as long as it closes above it, you can buy short-term rebounds within Fibonacci 0.5 and Fibonacci 0.236.
Short a candle close under the 1day MA50 and Target 129.800 (Support A).
Further short a crossing under Fibonacci 0.786 and Target 127.250 (Support B).

Stochastic exited the overbought region and we are seeing a bullish divergence which supports the bullish bias.
USDJPY H4 | Potential Reverse from 50% Fibo?Looking at the H4 chart, Price has reversed from the resistance level of 135.186 along with a 50% Fibonacci retracement. A reverse from here, the price could drop to 132.67 which is overlap support.

USDJPY Potential DownsidesHey Traders, USDJPY was trading in an uptrend, but after Friday's NFP data USDJPY managed to breakout the trend and now in a correction phase. i expect USD to be more weak in the short term until the release of CPI data by Tuesday so we can have a more clear vision of fed monetary policy. High CPI indicates more of a restrictive monetary policy so more of a strong dollar and USDJPY upsides. a soft CPI indicates more of a dovish FOMC and then more USDJPY downsides.
Technically we noticed the breakout of the uptrend so i will be monitoring USDJPY for a potential retrace of the trend around 136.1 zone. in case CPI is soft by Tuesday i would set 132.7 as a target as it's the next decent resistance and support zone the pair will be facing.
Trade safe, Joe.
