USDJPY BUYThe Japanese Yen (JPY) adds to its strong intraday gains against its American counterpart and drags the USD/JPY pair to a four-week low, around the 148.00 mark during the early European session on Thursday. A rise in Tokyo CPI, along with hawkish remarks by Bank of Japan (BoJ) officials, lifted bets that the central bank will exit the negative interest rates regime as soon as this month. This, along with a generally weaker tone around the equity markets, provides a goodish lift to the safe-haven JPY and drags the currency pair lower for the third successive day.
The US Dollar (USD), on the other hand, languishes near its lowest level since early February amid mixed signals about the Federal Reserve's (Fed) rate-cut path and does little to lend any support to the USD/JPY pair. This, in turn, suggests that the path of least resistance for the currency pair is to the downside and supports prospects for a further near-term depreciating move. Traders now look to Fed Chair Powell's second day of testimony, which, along with the US Weekly Initial Jobless Claims and Trade Balance data, might drive the USD ahead of the NFP report on Friday.
USDJPY → About to Breakout to New Highs? Let's Maximize Profits!USDJPY is on its third leg up in this bull channel that started at 141.000. We're near the top of Resistance Zone, is a long justified?
How do we trade this? 🤔
We need confirmation of a breakout to justify a long. After the initial bull run to 152.000, USDJPY pulled back with three legs to 140.200 and followed with a run to our current position of just over 149.000. The price action is technically at a new high in this run which could be the top of the third and final leg up.
Given the two strong bull bar closes on February 2nd and 8th and the lack of a sell signal, I do not believe this leg is over yet. What we need is a close above the Resistance Zone at 150.000 followed by a test of the top of Resistance as support. Once we see that support, it's reasonable to enter a long position with a 1:2 Risk/Reward Ratio. Take half profits at 1:1 Risk/Reward which is 151.200, move the stop loss up to the entry price to lock in profits, then swing the second half above the previous 152.000 high. 152.000 is a significant resistance area and I would be cautious to assume we'll make it to that price, however, the trend is our friend until the very end. Until we have a reason to change our bias, we must remain long.
💡 Trade Idea 💡
Long Entry: 150.385
🟥 Stop Loss: $149.250
✅ Take Profit #1: $151.200
✅ Take Profit #2: $152.650
⚖️ Risk/Reward Ratio: 1:2
🔑 Key Takeaways 🔑
1. Two strong legs up in a micro bull channel.
2. Third leg in progress, strong bull bar closes on February 2nd and 8th, indicating more upward momentum.
3. Near the top of the Resistance Zone, wait for a close above and test of Resistance as Support.
4. Enter a 1:2 Risk/Reward trade taking half profits at 1:1 Risk/Reward.
5. RSI at 63.00 and above the moving average, supports long bias.
💰 Trading Tip 💰
The longer a trend continues after 3 legs, the probability of that trend continuing lessens. Because of this decreased probability, we ought to reduce our risk when entering trades.

USDJPY Weekly analysisHello, traders here is an analysis of USDJPY you can see that the price has rejected this area two times and there is a likelihood that the price can do it again, I just have to wait for it to go below that zone and retest it then I can look for bearish opportunities. If the price goes up then I will do the same thing wait for it to go above the highlighted zone and retest it then I will look for bullish opportunities.
USDJPY: Will the Growth Continue?! 🇺🇸🇯🇵
As I predicted earlier, USDJPY nicely respected a broken key horizontal structure on a daily
and bounce from that.
Analysing a 4H time frame, I spotted one more bullish confirmation:
this time, the price violated a resistance line of a symmetrical triangle formation.
We may expect a retest of a current high now,
with a consequent continuation to 151.3 level.
❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️

USDJPY: Bullish Trend Continues? 🇺🇸🇯🇵
USDJPY is retesting a broken resistance line of a bullish flag pattern,
after a confirmed breakout of a key horizontal resistance.
Taking into consideration that the pair is trading in a strong bullish trend,
we may expect a trend following movement soon.
Goals: 150.57 / 150.86

USD/JPY carving out an M-Top candle pattern - SHORT from 149.82USD/JPY has hit resistance at 150.38 and is retreating south.
There's a clear M-Top candle pattern forming.This along with W-Bottom's are 2 of the most relaible candlestick patterns you should look for.
If the price declines to 149.82 then this will be our entry SHORT.
STOP is above the recent highs and take profit is the 200 EMA on H1 at 149.40 though as ever these STOPS and TP's are guidelines as all my trades are actively managed so these levels will frequently change.
Note that we have potentially significant USD news at 13:30 GNP in less than an hour.
US news this week has so far seen some large moves with many numbers missing by several percent.
News at 13:00 is PPI which is usually a huge market mover but any large deviation from the expected 1% estimate will no doubt shift the USD.
We also have Prelim UoM Consumer Sentiment which isn't usually a huge mover but we must also rmember its Friday and in 3 hours or so traders will be leaving their desks so volumes will shrink and this can either lead to wild swings or sideways movement of price.
USDJPY H1 / Short Trade Entry Alert! ✅💲Hello Traders!
This is my idea related to USDJPY H1. I see a double reaction from the FVG H1 and I expect a continuation of a bearish market until the price of 149.500 where we have the OB level.
Traders, if you liked my idea or if you have a different vision related to this trade, write in the comments. I will be glad to see your perspective.

USDJPY: The USD is stable in the context of the Fed cutting specThe yen showed resilience, up 0.23% against the dollar at 150.26, although Japan's GDP figures showed a larger-than-expected recession and Germany overtook Japan as the world's leading economic power. third largest economy in the world. Commonwealth Bank of Australia currency strategist points out that the technical recession in Japan has minimal impact on the dollar/yen exchange rate, with upcoming spring wage negotiations seen as has more influence on the policy direction of the Bank of Japan and the performance of the yen. The market is still considering the high possibility of BOJ raising interest rates in April, despite negative GDP data.
