USDJPY Wave Analysis – 11 April 2025 - USDJPY broke the support zone - Likely to fall to support level 141.65 USDJPY currency pair recently broke the support zone between the support level 144.60 (which stopped wave 1 at the start of April, as can be seen below) and the support trendline of the daily down channel from January. The breakout of this support zone accelerated the active short-term impulse wave 3 – which belongs to wave (3) from the end of March. Given the strongly bearish US dollar sentiment, USDJPY currency pair can be expected to fall to the next support level 141.65, former strong support from August and September.

USD/JPY shows a bearish setupUSD/JPY shows a bearish setup, both in terms of technical patterns and fundamentals.​ Technical: Head and Shoulders reversal pattern.​ Key levels 140-142 break below, then 135-137. Fundamental: Strengthening the yen - BOJ might raise rates twice, and possibly inflation will remain around 3% as recent wage hikes fuel inflation Weakening the Dollar - falling U.S. Treasury Yields possibly to 3.5% range and below, Trump's intentions to weaken the dollar to make exports competitive and imports expensive. Note: Last time, Trump handed over to Biden with DXY at around 90, and the current direction is towards the same.

USDJPY Bearish Flag Breakdown – Eyes on 140.11 Support ZoneUSDJPY is showing signs of a bearish continuation, following a breakdown from a rising wedge pattern. The recent strong drop confirms a shift in momentum from bullish to bearish, with price now forming a bear flag just below a key structure. Key Technical Zones: Current Price: 147.78 Resistance Area (Invalidation Zone): 148.11 – 151.44 Support Targets: TP1: 142.87 TP2: 140.11 Technical Confluence & Patterns: ✅ Series of Rising Wedges followed by sharp breakdowns ✅ Bear Flag Pattern forming after recent drop ✅ Lower highs & lower lows confirming downtrend ✅ Volume spike during breakdown, low volume on pullback Trade Outlook: 📉 Bias: Bearish below 148.11 📌 Entry Zone: On confirmation of flag breakdown 🎯 Target 1: 142.87 – Previous horizontal support 🎯 Target 2: 140.11 – Major swing support / demand zone 🛑 Invalidation: Break above 151.44 (major resistance zone) Conclusion: USDJPY is set up for a potential bearish continuation as it respects a textbook flag breakdown setup. A close below 147.50 would reinforce bearish pressure with further downside toward 142.87 and 140.11. Traders should monitor momentum and structure confirmation before entering positions.

USD/JPY in a well-defined downtrendUSD/JPY in a well-defined downtrend After Trump raised tariffs on Chinese imports to 145%, the U.S. dollar dropped sharply. This was surprising because just days before, when he raised tariffs to 104%, the dollar reacted differently. The price has fallen below a strong support level at 144.37, which is now acting as resistance. If USD/JPY moves back up toward this level, watch for a possible correction before the bearish trend continues. Important support levels to watch: 142.00, 140.00, and 138.00. You may find more details in the chart!

Yen Gains on Recession FearsThe yen rose past 144 per dollar, a six-month high, as U.S. recession fears and a Treasury selloff boosted demand for safe-haven assets. Although Trump paused new tariffs for 90 days, total U.S. tariffs on China now stand at 145%, prompting retaliation with China imposing 84% tariffs on U.S. goods. The U.S.-Japan trade outlook remains in focus, with Japan still facing a 10% U.S. tariff but seeking better terms. Key resistance is at 145.80, with further levels at 148.00 and 152.70. Support stands at 142.00, followed by 139.65 and 138.00.

Short! I opened two short positions yesterday.   I have a few short positions that I opened last week, but I feel comfortable adding more now. Entry - blue horizonal line in the chart. Stop loss - red horizontal line in the chart. Target 1, 2, 3 - black horizontal lines in the chart. If it hit target one, I will move a stop loss to the entry position.Target 1 is the previous month low so I anticipate some correction.  Once it resumes the downward movement, I plan to add position.   4H RSI provides reliable indication for pull back or trend reversal.  So I will keep an eye on it.   If you are interested in knowing my reasoning for my bearish bias, please check out the linked articles I published last week.

USDJPY LONG FORECAST Q2 W15 D11 Y25USDJPY LONG FORECAST Q2 W15 D11 Y25 Happy Friday Traders, It has been a week of sitting on capital. Being cautious, awaiting for breaks of structures at key areas and not not getting dragged into trades that do not fully present themselves. The clues have been there. The carrot has been continually dangled however as risk managers... You know how the saying goes. We stay true to our trading plan. We hold firm with what we know works. We are aware of our market edge. We know our "perfect" set up does present itself. with that said, we are dynamic! We do of course entertain the "Imperfect" setup. We simply approach with caution. USDJPY LONG FORECAST Q2 W15 D11 Y25 15' of course, bearish start to the Friday. Perhaps we are asking a lot from UJ today but let's see if we can break 15' structure before taking a deeper look. Bigger picture, We are in a weekly order block in the long direction so all shorts are OFF until further notice. Best of Luck Traders. Continue to manager your capital. FRGNT X
