USD/JPY Analysis: Price Retreats from One-Month HighUSD/JPY Analysis: Price Retreats from One-Month High The USD/JPY chart shows that yesterday (3 October), the price slightly surpassed the 147.230 level, marking the highest point since 3 September. This is significant as it indicates a new swing high, identified by the ZigZag indicator (in purple), which hasn’t been seen in months. Bullish arguments for the USD/JPY chart today: → The price is within an ascending channel (shown in blue), illustrating an upward trajectory for the US dollar. This follows a period where the yen gained strength, pushing the exchange rate below the psychological threshold of 140 yen per dollar. → After the price broke above the upper boundary of the blue channel (signifying overbought conditions), a correction (such as to the channel's median) appears appropriate. Bearish argument: → The brief breach above the prior swing high (indicated by an arrow) may have created a bull trap and triggered stop-losses for sellers positioned just above the 3 September high. Today’s decline supports the view that the break above 147.230 was a false breakout. What’s next for USD/JPY? Much will depend on the fundamentals. On Friday, traders are closely watching US labour market data (to be released at 15:30 GMT+3), which could influence US interest rate expectations. Meanwhile, the yen's movement is affected by uncertainties surrounding Japan’s upcoming prime ministerial change. According to Reuters, recent comments from Shigeru Ishiba have fuelled expectations that Japan's rate hikes might be delayed. Additionally, demand for safe-haven assets is impacting USD/JPY as markets assess the effects of rising tensions in the Middle East on the global economy.

JPY Faces Further Downside as DXY Surges on Powell's RemarksThe US Dollar Index (DXY) has risen sharply, nearing the 101.00 level, in response to recent comments made by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Powell’s remarks signaled that while the Fed remains cautious about future rate cuts, any adjustments would be gradual, contributing to the strengthening of the US Dollar. This move has had ripple effects across currency pairs, most notably with the Japanese Yen (JPY), which has begun a reversal from a key supply area that was identified in our analysis last week. The price action of the JPY has played out as anticipated, with the pair hitting our first take profit target. The reversal came as the US Dollar gained momentum, pushing the Yen lower. You can view the previous analysis that accurately predicted this movement in the following idea: As we look ahead to the upcoming trading sessions, a potential for further bearish momentum in the JPY is on the horizon. The next significant catalysts for the market will be today’s release of the ISM Manufacturing PMI and JOLTS Job Openings data from the US. Should these reports come in stronger than expected, it could fuel another bullish impulse for the US Dollar, potentially driving the DXY higher and triggering further downside for the Yen. The ISM Manufacturing PMI is a critical indicator of the health of the US manufacturing sector, and positive results would signal continued economic expansion, lending further strength to the Dollar. The JOLTS Job Openings data, which provides insight into labor market conditions, will also be closely watched. A strong labor market reading would add to the case for the Fed to take a measured approach to rate cuts, reinforcing the current bullish sentiment surrounding the USD. Given these dynamics, traders should remain alert for the possibility of a fresh bearish wave in the JPY, especially if the US economic data reinforces the current narrative of USD strength. The technical setup from last week’s supply area continues to offer a solid framework for managing positions, with further take profit levels within reach should the bearish trend in the Yen persist. In conclusion, the DXY’s rise near 101.00, supported by Powell’s comments, has already triggered a significant move in the JPY, and the upcoming ISM and JOLTS data could provide additional fuel for further bearish action. Traders should keep an eye on key levels and be prepared for another bearish impulse in the JPY if the USD continues its upward march. ✅ Please share your thoughts about JPY in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.

JAPAN as a HERO? UP! GOKU Last Fight! JAPAN is the last one to join the party! The final fight for the #BlowoffTop. Why is this so important? If you look at correlations with BTC, global liquidity, China, the Fed’s interest rates, and more, Japan plays a key role. After China, Japan is the next to wake up and give the final push to this Bull Market. The last time the Nikkei dropped more than 25% was during the COVID crash. What happened next? It rallied 26% in the first 52 days and extended its Bull Market to over 88% from the bottom. With the current Carry Trade crisis (still unresolved), the TVC:NI225 has dropped more than 25% again, and guess what? It’s up 26% in the first 52 days... History doesn’t repeat, but it often rhymes. It’s feeling like 2017 all over again... What do you think? 🚀📈

[USD/JPY] Decades of relationship: A historyOne of the thing that I love about trading is how we can look at the price history. Since this week the TVC:DXY seems gaining momentum (at least in short term), I just think it would be interesting to see the history of relationship between FX:USDJPY as this pair currently possibly pivoting its trend. This is FX:USDJPY weekly chart, goes back to 2001. Since 2001, there are 2 major eras: the era where JPY is strong & the era where USD is strong. Both eras share similar timespan, a decade (10 years or so). If the history rhyme, we might now seeing the change of an era, possibly towards the JPY era. For next 10 years ? I don't really know as today's market is much more complex than even 3 years ago. Nevertheless, current trend is indeed changing. If we look at the current chart, we can see the MACD divergence happened just before the drop in USD value. It's interesting to see how this setup have happened many times in the past 20 years: 2 peaks, MACD divergence, then USD drop. The drop are varied off course, so interesting to see how this time it will played out. There is a sensible explanation for this though & it's quite simple: FED is cutting rates, while BOJ ends its negative rate regime, hence narrowing yield between JPY & USD, make keeping the JPY in Japan more attractive, or at least less risky.

6j Yen Short SwingsI have been watching the Yen carefully since July. This upswing has provided a healthy reset but current price action represents the tide turning back to the short side which fundamentally supports Japans struggle to maintain currency value. The risk/reward makes sense to me and I'm actively watching for swing shorts with .006700 target. The daily chart is presenting a great entry point as old support now becomes resistance. I'll post the entry if/when it's made. Timeline is before November (US Elections)

USDJPY still has more downside on daily & weekly tfStructurally I'm looking for rejection at 147-149.8 range. Look for renewed selling action below 144 to confirm. Still seeing additional unwinding of the yen carry trade as highly likely over subsequent days & weeks. Targeting 136, 131, and 126 handles on weekly structure as we approach Q1 of 2025. Particularly as the US Federal Reserve is pressured to cut rates further with recent data. Entering short positions gradually but the majority is already in place.

USDJPY / UNDER BULLISH PRESSUE / 4HUSDJPY / 4H TIME FRAME HELLO TRADERS after breakout from a channel, leading to a price increase of 1.82%. The breakout signals potential for further upward movement. The price is expected to retest a Fair Value Gap (FVG), which is a technical term in trading that represents an area on the chart where price moved quickly, leaving little to no volume. The specified FVG zone is between 145.303 and 144.367. A retest of this area could indicate the market finding support here. If the price remains above this FVG area and stabilizes, there is an expectation of further increases, potentially reaching the supply zone between 147.602 and 149.360. This suggests that the supply zone is where there could be selling pressure. A break above the supply zone would indicate even more upside potential for prices. On the downside, if the price closes a 4-hour candle below the FVG area, the expectation is for prices to decline. This could lead the price to a demand zone between 142.672 and 141.736, suggesting buying interest might come in at this level. Supply Zone : 147.602 and 149.360. Demand Zone : 142.672 and 141.736. FVG : 145.303 and 144.367.

USD/JPY Recovers from Below 140.00 Area During BoJThe USD/JPY pair has staged an impressive recovery, pushing toward the 143.00 level in the European morning session, following an initial dip below 140.00. This move comes in response to the Bank of Japan's (BoJ) decision to maintain its ultra-loose monetary policy stance, as widely expected. Governor Kazuo Ueda's press conference reiterated the central bank's cautious approach toward tightening monetary conditions, which triggered a temporary pullback in the currency pair. From a technical standpoint, this recovery aligns with our prior analysis that pointed to a potential reversal within a demand zone near the 140.00 level. This area has acted as a key support, fueling buying momentum and setting the stage for a continuation of the long position. The price action suggests that buyers are still keen to capitalize on dips in the pair, particularly as USD strength remains broadly supported by the Federal Reserve's hawkish outlook. Further supporting the bullish outlook is the Commitment of Traders (COT) report, which shows that retail traders remain bearish on the USD/JPY pair. Typically, a contrarian view of retail positioning can indicate further upside potential, as institutional investors tend to take the opposite side of the trade. With retail sentiment still leaning toward the short side, it opens the door for continued upward movement in the pair, especially if market sentiment shifts further in favor of the U.S. dollar. As we look ahead, the USD/JPY appears poised to target higher levels, with 143.00 acting as an immediate resistance. Should the bullish momentum persist, traders may set their sights on a potential breakout, paving the way for a sustained move higher. All eyes will remain on global central banks and key economic data releases in the coming weeks, as these will likely play a crucial role in shaping the next leg of the USD/JPY’s trajectory.

USD/JPY: Japanese Yen Slips on Dovish CommentsThe Japanese Yen (JPY) struggled on Monday following dovish remarks from Japan's incoming Prime Minister, Shigeru Ishiba. In a statement on Sunday, Ishiba emphasized the need to maintain an accommodative monetary policy, underlining the importance of low borrowing costs to support Japan's fragile economic recovery. These comments weighed on the Yen, particularly against the US Dollar (USD), as traders interpreted the remarks as a signal that Japan's central bank is unlikely to shift toward tightening any time soon. Ishiba's stance reflects Japan's ongoing economic challenges, where inflation remains subdued, and growth has yet to gain meaningful traction. By advocating for continued stimulus, the new Prime Minister aligns himself with the Bank of Japan’s longstanding ultra-loose monetary policy, a position that contrasts sharply with the tightening cycles of other major central banks, particularly the Federal Reserve. From a technical standpoint, the USD/JPY pair remains within a key demand area on the daily chart, suggesting a potential bullish setup. The Commitment of Traders (COT) report indicates that retail traders remain strongly bearish on the Yen, while institutional investors, or "smart money," have shifted to more bullish positions. This divergence between retail sentiment and institutional activity hints at a possible reversal in the Yen’s fortunes, as large players appear to be positioning for a stronger JPY in the near term. The combination of these fundamental and technical factors sets the stage for potential bullish momentum in the Japanese Yen. Despite the immediate downside pressure caused by Ishiba's comments, market dynamics suggest that the JPY could rebound if economic conditions in Japan stabilize or if geopolitical factors shift global risk sentiment. As the market continues to digest the implications of Japan's monetary policy stance, traders will be looking for signs of a reversal or further weakness in the Yen. In conclusion, while the Japanese Yen has softened in the wake of dovish policy signals from incoming PM Shigeru Ishiba, the technical picture suggests that a rebound could be on the horizon. The interplay between bearish retail sentiment and bullish institutional moves could trigger a bullish momentum shift in the coming sessions, making the JPY a currency to watch closely. Traders should remain cautious, keeping an eye on both policy developments in Japan and broader global economic trends. ✅ Please share your thoughts about USD/JPY in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.

Key Support Holds for USD/JPY: Will the Pair Break Past 150?On Friday, USD/JPY experienced a significant sell-off, losing around 500 pips in a sharp downward movement. However, after reaching the key horizontal support level at 141.64, the pair managed to find some relief and began a recovery, suggesting that the recent decline may have been short-lived. Currently, USD/JPY is working to negate this steep sell-off, indicating that the recovery process could be underway. In my view, USD/JPY is poised to continue its rebound from the 162-140 decline, with the potential to surpass the psychological barrier of 150. If the pair successfully breaks through this level, it could head toward the important resistance zone near 152, which will be a critical point for further bullish momentum. For shorter-term traders, there are additional levels to monitor before reaching the 150 mark. Key upside targets include 147.30 and 149.40, both of which present potential profit-taking opportunities as the pair continues its recovery.
