USDJPY analysis week 21Fundamental Analysis USD/JPY recovered slightly on Friday as the USD recovered and traded sideways around the DXY index level of 100.80. The Japanese Yen (JPY) strengthened despite a decline in Japan's GDP, due to its safe-haven status and expectations that the BOJ will not raise interest rates soon. The BOJ kept interest rates at 0.5%, lowered its 2025 GDP growth forecast to 0.5% and may pause interest rate hikes until September to monitor the impact of US tariffs. The Fed kept interest rates unchanged, no plans to cut in the near term. The Fed Chairman warned that tariffs could increase inflation and reduce growth. Technical Analysis USDJPY is reacting at the 89 EMA. Overall, the uptrend is still maintained for this pair and pay attention to the immediate support level of 144,000, while the pair is still trading above this area, the uptrend is still continuing. The two resistance levels that the pair could reach next week are noted at 147.500 and 148.300. In case the 144.000 trend zone is broken, the pair's slide will be supported by the May low around 142.600.

Yen Strengthens Despite Japan’s Q1 ContractionThe Japanese yen strengthened toward 145 per dollar, extending its rally for a fourth straight day, despite Japan’s economy shrinking by 0.2% in the first quarter, worse than forecasts. While the Bank of Japan acknowledged the risks posed by U.S. trade policies, it remains confident that rising wages and prices will support eventual policy normalization. Investors are closely watching U.S.-Japan trade negotiations, with Japan insisting that any deal must include the auto sector and that the 25% U.S. tariff on Japanese cars be removed. Resistance is noted at 148.60, with further barriers at 149.80 and 151.20. Major support levels lie at 139.70, 137.00, and 135.00.

USDJPY Repriced for a Better Short OpportunityIn my initial trade shared during the Asian session, USDJPY swept the sell-side liquidity and formed a clear Fair Value Gap (FVG). Price action has now provided a refined entry point for a continuation short setup. The recent liquidity sweep, followed by displacement, suggests that the market may aim for the recent low — with the potential to push even further if bearish momentum continues. My short position is now aligned with this structure, and I’ll be watching closely for signs of continuation or rejection near key support levels.

Sell entry is at 145.82 which is an overlap resistance that aligns with the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement. Stop loss is at 147.11 which is a level that sits above the 50.0% Fibonacci retracement and a swing-high resistance.

USDJPY – 4hr Breakdown – May 16USDJPY has pulled back, filled the Sunday gap, and is now approaching the bottom of the bullish channel we’ve been monitoring. 🔹 Main interest is at 144.767 — key level to look for long entries 🔹 If this support holds, we can expect a swing move to form a new higher high, giving us potential for ~500 pips 🔹 No sell positions unless we break the structure with a close below 143.802 🔹 If that happens, 142.00 becomes the first target This remains a structure-led swing setup — patience is key until confirmation shows.

Bearish USD/JPY — Yen Strength FavoredCMCMARKETS:USDJPY Bearish Factors (USD Negative / JPY Positive): Hawkish BoJ Expectations: Despite Japan’s weaker Q1 GDP, BoJ officials—particularly Deputy Governor Uchida—have signalled openness to resuming rate hikes in 2025. A Reuters survey suggests a potential 25bps hike before year-end. This divergence from the Fed’s stance supports JPY strength. Dovish Fed Outlook Intensifies: Weak U.S. April PPI and retail sales figures reinforce expectations for multiple rate cuts this year. Falling Treasury yields and soft inflation readings weigh heavily on the dollar. Resistance : 146.75 , 145.87 Support : 144.91 , 143.52
