USDJPY - Bigger correction on the daily timeframeUSD/JPY's daily chart indicates we're expecting a larger correction in the near term, followed by a likely continuation of the downtrend toward the blue box target area (143.50-146.00). After reaching peaks near 162.00 in July 2024 and 158.00 in December 2024/January 2025, the pair has established a series of lower highs, creating a clear downtrend pattern. Currently trading around 148.05, the price sits at a critical juncture, with the projected path suggesting a temporary bounce (as illustrated by the zigzag line) before bearish momentum likely resumes. This outlook is supported by the consistent lower highs since mid-2024, the price's position near a historical support/resistance level, February's failed attempt to sustain prices above 150, and the overall downward momentum that has dominated since December 2024.

Surging yen hits 5-month high, wage data mixedThe Japanese yen has started the week with strong gains.  In the European session, USD/JPY is trading at 147.07, down 0.766 on the day. Earlier, the yen strengthened to 146.72, its best level since Oct. 4, 2024. Japan's wage data for January was mixed. Base pay for Japanese workers jumped by 3.1% y/y but more importantly, inflation-adjusted real wages declined by 1.8%. This follows two consecutive months of gains and signals that inflation has outpaced growth. The wage report was released just days before the end of annual wage negotiations at Japan's largest companies. The largest labor union in Japan is demanding large wage hike of 6% and the Bank of Japan wants to see a strong rise in wages in order to keep inflation sustainable at the 2% level. The BoJ has urged companies and workers to reach a deal that significantly raises wages. The central back meets next week and is widely expected to keep interest rates unchanged. Still, the Bank has signaled it plans to continue raising rates during the year. In the US, nonfarm payrolls rose to 151 thousand in February, up from a downwardly revised 125 thousand in January but shy of the market estimate of 160 thousand.  The unemployment rate rose to 4.1% from 4%.  Wage growth eased to 0.3% m/m from a revised 0.4% in January, in line with expectations. Annualized, wages ticked higher to 4%, up from a revised 3.9% in January but below the market estimate of 4.1%. The employment report was decent but the threat of US tariffs continues to cloud the economic outlook. If trade tensions escalate, the Federal Reserve may have to adjust its rate path, depending on how tariffs affect inflation and growth. USD/JPY has pushed below support at 147.26 and is testing support t 147.26. Next is support at 1.46.48 148.51 and 148.98 are the next resistance lines

Yen Benefits from Dollar's Broad RetreatThe Japanese yen held around 149 per dollar, its strongest in five months, benefiting from the dollar’s decline on a stronger euro and Trump’s tariff policies. His selective tariff exemptions and retaliatory measures weakened the dollar further. Domestically, BOJ Deputy Governor Shinichi Uchida suggested possible rate hikes if economic projections align but emphasized that Japan’s monetary conditions remain highly accommodative, with only minimal reductions in government bond holdings. Key resistance is at 152.00, with further levels at 154.90 and 156.00. Support stands at 147.10, followed by 145.80 and 143.00.

USDJPY - at potential Buy SetupOANDA:USDJPY is nearing a significant support area that has reversed bearish trends into bullish momentum. This support level aligns with prior price reactions and represents a strong foundation for potential upward moves. If buyers confirm their presence with bullish price action, such as long lower wicks or bullish engulfing candles, I expect the price to go toward 151,100. Also, a break below this support could signal further bearish continuation. Just my take on support and resistance zones—not financial advice. Always confirm your setups and trade with solid risk management!

Fundamental Market Analysis for March 7, 2025 USDJPYEvent to pay attention to today: 15:30 EET. USD - Non-Farm Employment Change USDJPY: The Japanese Yen (JPY) has been strengthening in recent weeks due to the general weakness of the US Dollar (USD), maintaining the USD/JPY pair near its lowest level since early October, which was reached on Thursday.Speculation that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will continue to raise interest rates has put upward pressure on Japanese government bond (JGB) yields. The narrowing rate differential between Japan and other countries continues to support the low-yielding yen.Meanwhile, uncertainty surrounding US President Donald Trump's trade policy and its impact on global economic growth continues to weigh on investor sentiment, as evidenced by weaker stock market performance. This is another factor supporting the safe-haven yen. However, USD bears seem reluctant to place new bets and prefer to wait for the release of the US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report, which in turn limits USD/JPY losses. Trade recommendation: BUY 147.600, SL 147.000, TP 148.400

USD/JPY Fake Breakout and Bearish Reversal SetupThis is a technical analysis chart for USD/JPY, showing a potential bearish reversal after a breakout attempt. Analysis: Key Levels: Resistance: Near 151.039 (recent high, indicated by the blue arrow). Support: Around 150.500 and 150.000 (marked within the red consolidation box). Market Structure: The price was consolidating in a range (red box). It broke out briefly above resistance, but the breakout appears weak. The price is now falling back inside the range, indicating a fakeout. Potential Trade Setup: Bearish Bias: If the price fails to hold above 151.039, it may retest the lower range. Target Levels: First target: Around 150.500 (mid-range support). Second target: Around 150.000 (lower support of the range). Stop Loss (SL): Above 151.039, in case of another breakout attempt. Volume Confirmation: The volume spiked on the breakout, but the quick rejection suggests a lack of strong buying pressure. If volume increases on the way down, it supports a bearish move. Trading Bias: Bearish short-term outlook due to fake breakout and rejection at resistance. Expecting a move back into the range, potentially testing lower support levels.

USD/JPY Upcoming Trend – Will It Continue Falling?🔔🔔🔔 USD/JPY news: 👉The Japanese Yen (JPY) maintains its upward momentum against a broadly weaker US Dollar (USD) during the early European session on Monday, driven by expectations of further interest rate hikes from the BoJ. Market participants are increasingly convinced that the BoJ will tighten its policy again, a sentiment reinforced by data released earlier today showing a 1.8% decline in real cash earnings due to persistent inflation. Additionally, strong wage growth from last year is expected to continue, further supporting the case for policy tightening. This has led to rising Japanese government bond (JGB) yields, narrowing the rate gap between Japan and other economies, which in turn strengthens the JPY. 👉Meanwhile, lingering concerns over the potential economic impact of US President Donald Trump's trade policies and a possible global trade war continue to boost the JPY's appeal as a safe-haven asset. 👉On the other hand, the USD remains under pressure, hovering near its lowest level since November, following Friday's weaker US jobs report. The disappointing data has fueled speculation that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will implement multiple rate cuts this year, further weakening the USD and weighing on the USD/JPY pair. Given this backdrop, the overall market sentiment favors JPY bulls, suggesting that the currency pair is likely to trend lower in the near term. Personal opinion: 👉USD/JPY will continue to decline after disappointing economic data for the USD 👉Technically, in the short term, the USD is recovering slightly when it touches a strong support level - the lowest level since November 5, 2024. However, this upward recovery will not last long. Analysis: 👉Based on important resistance - support zones combined with trend lines and SMA to come up with a suitable strategy Plan: 🔆 Price Zone Setup: 👉Sell USD/JPY 147.40 - 147.50 ❌SL: 147.90 | ✅TP: 147.00 – 146.60 – 146.20 FM wishes you a successful trading day 💰💰💰

USD/JPY Trend in Upcoming Trading Session - Bearish?🔔🔔🔔 USD/JPY news: 👉The latest US CPI report shows that headline inflation rose by 2.8%, slightly below the expected 2.9% and slower than January’s 3% increase. Core CPI, which excludes food and energy prices, eased to 3.1% from the previous 3.3%, while economists had anticipated a moderate slowdown to 3.2%. On a monthly basis, both headline and core inflation rose by 0.2%, falling short of the forecasted 0.3% increase. 👉With inflationary pressures cooling, traders are expected to increase their bets on the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in May. Fed Chair Jerome Powell stated on Friday that the central bank's restrictive policy stance will not persist for long if the labor market weakens unexpectedly or inflation declines more than anticipated. 👉The US Dollar has remained weak in recent weeks, as investors believe that former President Donald Trump’s tariff policies could slow economic growth, with higher import duties potentially reducing household purchasing power. 👉Meanwhile, the Japanese Yen has been underperforming its counterparts despite major Japanese companies agreeing to significant wage increases for the third consecutive year, according to a Reuters report. This could strengthen inflation expectations and raise the likelihood of the Bank of Japan implementing another rate hike this year. Personal opinion: 👉Based on economic information, it can be seen that USD/JPY will maintain its downward momentum in the coming time. Technical analysis: 👉Shows signs of price breaking the trend line and touching the pivot point of the Pivot points RSI (1H) shows signs of reversing down after entering the overbought zone Plan: 🔆 Price Zone Setup: 👉Buy USD/JPY 148.40 – 148.60 ❌SL: 1.4340 | ✅TP: 148.00 – 147.60 – 147.00 FM wishes you a successful trading day 💰💰💰

#USDJPY TRENDLINE BREAKUSDJPY broke through the downward momentum trendline on the 4h chart, however, due to to the unstable market at the moment, it may head a little lower to touch the support zone in the 146.100 area before reversing to the upside - depending on the strength of the US Dollar today. I will be looking for a confirmation candle close on the 1h chart to enter my long trade and placing my stop-loss just below the support zone. Remember to not rush into trades as the market is a little volatile and sensitive to economic news!
