USDJPY - Analysis My main trading principle is that the price always moves from swept liquidity levels to untouched liquidity levels. In particular case we clearly can see the following context: price swept 1D key liquidity level and left untouched level lower. But to take more statistically more probable trades we should wait for some time of lower timeframe confirmation. For me the best way to confirm higher timeframe context is structure. We can notice the break of market structure (sign of weakness) on key liquidity level, so there is a higher probability to see price lower at least on opposite level (marked lower). Your success is determined solely by your ability to consistently follow the same principles.

USDJPY Slightly Bearish Bias Today: Key Fundamental Drivers !Introduction Today, USDJPY exhibits a slight bearish bias amid shifting fundamental factors and evolving market conditions. The yen’s appeal as a safe-haven currency and recent developments in the US economy are shaping USDJPY’s direction. In this article, we’ll analyze the main drivers that contribute to this bearish outlook for USDJPY and highlight what traders should watch in today’s forex market. --- Key Drivers of the Bearish Bias in USDJPY 1. Weakening US Dollar on Mixed Economic Data The US dollar has recently shown signs of softening, driven by mixed economic reports. Data from the past week, including non-farm payrolls and the ISM Manufacturing PMI, indicated a slowdown in US economic activity. This uncertainty around US growth is weakening the dollar’s position against safe-haven currencies like the yen. A weaker USD generally supports a bearish outlook for USDJPY as traders adjust their positions based on changing expectations for the Federal Reserve's policy direction. 2. Dovish Signals from the Federal Reserve Recent signals from the Federal Reserve suggest that it may be nearing the end of its rate-hiking cycle, with a possible pivot in sight for 2025. The Fed’s cautious stance has dampened expectations for further rate increases, which reduces demand for the USD. This dovish shift makes the dollar less attractive, especially when paired against the yen, a currency that typically benefits from safe-haven demand. The reduced rate differential between the US and Japan lends further support to a bearish USDJPY outlook. 3. Bank of Japan’s Monetary Policy Adjustments The Bank of Japan (BOJ) has recently hinted at making adjustments to its ultra-loose monetary policy, indicating a slow but potential shift toward normalization. Although the BOJ has maintained a dovish stance overall, any sign of policy tightening is significant for USDJPY. Market participants are speculating on a gradual shift, which could increase the yen’s appeal relative to the dollar, contributing to the current bearish bias for USDJPY. 4. Global Risk Sentiment and Safe-Haven Demand for Yen The yen’s safe-haven status provides it with support in times of risk aversion, and today’s market sentiment reflects a cautious tone. Geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty in other major markets are heightening safe-haven demand. As investors seek safety, the yen becomes more attractive, leading to bearish pressure on USDJPY as funds flow into Japan’s currency. 5. US-Japan Yield Spread Narrowing One important factor influencing USDJPY is the yield differential between US Treasuries and Japanese government bonds (JGBs). Recently, the gap has begun to narrow, as US Treasury yields decline amid expectations of a more dovish Fed, while Japanese yields remain steady or inch slightly higher. A narrower yield spread weakens the case for holding USD over JPY, adding weight to a bearish USDJPY outlook. --- Technical Analysis of USDJPY Technically, USDJPY appears to be trading near resistance levels, suggesting potential for a pullback. The pair’s price action is testing support around the 148.50 mark, a critical level that could dictate near-term momentum. Should bearish sentiment intensify, traders could look for downside targets near 148.00 or lower. Conversely, any break above resistance near 149.50 could challenge the bearish bias, although today’s fundamentals lean towards a slightly bearish trend. --- Conclusion In summary, today’s bearish bias in USDJPY is driven by a combination of US dollar weakness, potential adjustments from the BOJ, safe-haven demand for the yen, and a narrowing yield differential. As these factors continue to play out, USDJPY may face further downside pressure unless there is a significant shift in either US or Japanese economic policy. Traders should keep a close watch on upcoming US data releases and any new BOJ policy commentary, as these events could shape the pair’s movement in the near term. --- SEO Tags: #USDJPYAnalysis #USDJPYForecast #USDJPYToday #USDJPYFundamentalAnalysis #USDollarYenOutlook #BankofJapanPolicy #ForexMarketUpdate #TradingUSDJPY #USDJPYBearishBias

USD/JPY May Experience Slight DeclineIn Tuesday's Asian trading session, the Japanese Yen (JPY) weakened against the US Dollar (USD), moving away from the one-week high reached the previous day. However, the decline in JPY may be limited as traders remain cautious amid the uncertainty surrounding the US presidential election, coupled with expectations that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) will raise interest rates in December. At the same time, the ongoing "Trump deal" and expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) may cut interest rates later this week have led to a decline in US Treasury yields, narrowing the interest rate differential between the US and Japan. This weakens the demand for USD, providing support for JPY. Additionally, a weaker risk sentiment could favor the Yen and limit significant upside moves in the USD/JPY pair. With resistance at 152.337, the USD/JPY pair may struggle to maintain strong upward momentum. If the price fails to break above this level, the likelihood of a downward correction increases, with the nearest support levels at 151.500 and 151.000. However, if the Yen continues to face pressure from macroeconomic factors such as US election uncertainty or expectations surrounding the BoJ’s monetary policy, the USD/JPY pair may still test the 152.337 resistance again.

USDJPY InsightHello, subscribers! Please share your personal opinions in the comments. Don't forget to boost and subscribe! Key Points - October 31: The Bank of Japan decided to keep interest rates unchanged. Governor Ueda mentioned that real interest rates are currently very low and added that they will raise policy rates as economic and price outlooks improve. - Iowa Polls: Following news that Harris is leading within the margin of error in Iowa, where Trump had a lead, we’re seeing a reversal in the "Trump trade." - November FOMC: The Federal Reserve is expected to implement a 25 basis point rate cut in this month’s FOMC meeting. - OPEC: OPEC and OPEC+ have postponed their production increase plans once again. Key Economic Indicators - November 5: U.S. Presidential Election, Reserve Bank of Australia rate decision - November 7: Bank of England rate decision - November 8: FOMC meeting results announcement USD/JPY Chart Analysis Although the Bank of Japan kept rates steady, hawkish remarks were made during the subsequent press conference, contributing to dollar weakness and yen strength, along with the "Trump trade" reversal. Currently, the price is forming around the 152 line. There’s a possibility of a further pullback to the 149.500 line; however, in the broader perspective, the likelihood of a rise to the 158 line is stronger. With the FOMC meeting and U.S. election this week, major factors will be in play. If the market direction shifts, I’ll swiftly adjust strategies.

UsdJpy- Will history repeat itself?As we approach the final months of the year, it’s worth noting the impact of JPY repatriation, which traditionally occurs when Japanese investors pull funds back to Japan, boosting yen demand. This trend often leads to an appreciation in the Japanese yen, affecting currency pairs like FX:USDJPY , as demand surges. Historically, this phenomenon has triggered notable yen strength. For example, last year saw USD/JPY fall by around 1,000 pips due to these repatriation flows. Assuming similar conditions prevail, we could anticipate another yen rally by this year's end. Technical Overview of USD/JPY: Currently, USD/JPY recently hit a high of around 154, moving into a key resistance area. At the time of writing, the price hovers above the horizontal support level. A decisive break below it could indicate a bearish “false break,” potentially signaling a larger downside move. Should the downtrend persist, potential targets could be set at: - Slightly under 150, - Followed by further support at 147, - And ultimately, a critical support at 141.

Just an update of USDJPY LongBecause I decided to publish my "moves" now, there are positions that are live and developed further from entries. Im just trying to show my approach my reasoning and management. As for technical analysis goes. We had a break down of JPY strength With alot of LTF warnings but now even the daily gave us BOS. With this my confidance rank closed above 90% confirmig confluence with fundemental analysis and I took a long position. For the fundamental analysis the long USDJPY position is fundamentally supported by the policy divergence between the Fed and BoJ, stronger U.S. economic data, yield differentials favoring the USD, and the USD’s relative safe-haven appeal. If the BoJ maintains its accommodative policies and the Fed stays hawkish, USD/JPY could see further upside. so the update, technical analysis, yesterdays bear close did warn us, but thats pretty much it, one signal is just that a signal and nothing more, decisions to actually act need to be derived with confluence and proof. Fundamentals still support the Long position and so does the chart.

USDJPY - Yen will continue to strengthen?!The USDJPY currency pair is above the EMA200 and EMA50 in the 4H timeframe and is moving in its medium-term bullish channel. In case of correction due to the release of today's economic data, we can see the demand zone and buy in those two zones with the appropriate risk reward. Yesterday, the Bank of Japan kept its interest rate unchanged at 0.25%, as expected. The Japanese government maintained its overall economic assessment for October, continuing to believe that the economy is recovering at a moderate pace. However, it downgraded its outlook on production, indicating that output might be facing challenges and may struggle to grow significantly. Meanwhile, Japan’s Economy Minister, Akazawa, stated that currency movements are being closely monitored, and proposed policies from other parties will be reviewed. He also noted that a weaker yen could lead to a decrease in income and private consumption, particularly if wage growth is insufficient. According to a recent Reuters survey of economists, 103 out of 111 economists expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 0.25% in November and December of this year, bringing the rate to a range of 4.25% to 4.5%. Additionally, 74 out of 96 surveyed economists predict that the Federal Reserve’s interest rate will drop to 3% to 3.25% or higher by the end of 2025. A recent report from CIBC suggests that a 3% growth in U.S. GDP is unlikely to overheat the economy. CIBC believes that the U.S. economy can sustain growth at this rate while continuing its rate-cutting cycle. The report shows that U.S. economic growth has reached 2.8%, slightly below analysts’ 3% expectation. Nonetheless, the details reflect a robust economic performance, with domestic consumption offsetting the negative effects of net trade. CIBC analysts argue that 3% growth should be seen as a new measure of economic capacity rather than a sign of overheating. They point to improvements in productivity and cooling labor markets and inflation, asserting that

USDJPY Analysis: Buy to win ? The USDJPY pair is showing a bullish structure, with prices currently around 152.29. The chart indicates a recent rally, but price action now suggests a potential pullback before resuming the uptrend. The immediate support zone lies around the 149.41 - 149.56 area, which could act as a solid base for a bounce. The technical setup indicates that, after a pullback to this support level, USDJPY could rally towards the next significant resistance target at 158.64. The moving averages are also aligned in favor of the bulls, providing additional confirmation of upward momentum in the medium term. Traders might consider waiting for the price to test the support zone before entering long positions, aiming for the 158.64 target. This pullback could present a good buying opportunity, aligning with the overall bullish trend.
