USDJPY INTRADAY capped bearish below 151.20 awaits tariff dataThe USDJPY currency pair remains in a bearish trend, with the recent price action showing signs of an oversold bounce. While a temporary rebound is in play, the broader sentiment remains weak unless a decisive breakout occurs.
Key Levels to Watch:
Resistance Levels: 151.21 (critical level), 152.20, 153.04
Support Levels: 149.17, 148.26, 147.22
Bearish Scenario:
A rejection from the 151.21 resistance level could reaffirm the downside bias, leading to a continuation of the bearish move toward 149.17, with extended declines targeting 148.26 and 147.22 over the longer timeframe.
Bullish Scenario:
A breakout above 151.21 with a daily close above this level would challenge the bearish sentiment, opening the door for further gains toward 152.20, followed by 153.04.
Conclusion:
The market sentiment remains bearish, with 151.21 acting as a critical resistance zone. A rejection from this level could reinforce the downtrend, while a confirmed breakout would shift the outlook to bullish, favouring further upside. Traders should closely monitor price action at this key level for confirmation.

USDJPY Short OpportunityPoint and Figure charting is the OG technical analysis method—no fancy candlesticks or bar charts needed. Unlike other charts, Point and Figure ignores time and focuses purely on price action, offering clarity amid market noise.
If candlestick charts look too chaotic for your taste, Point and Figure usually clears things up. Its simplicity is its best feature: fewer patterns and straightforward trade execution rules, compared to the 150+ patterns of Japanese Candlesticks.
On the USDJPY 40-pip/3-box reversal P&F chart, a bear flag pattern is currently being tested and acting as solid resistance. This creates an aggressive but appealing short entry opportunity at 148.80. Below this entry, there are multiple potential profit targets, with T3 (141.60) marking the maximum realistic expectation.
Now, before you get too excited about a single-column collapse from 148.80 down to 141.60—hold your horses. The odds of USDJPY making such a dramatic drop in one swift move are slim to none. But given the current international trade tensions, stranger things have happened.
Think of the area between 148.80 and 141.60 as a zone where it's easier for USDJPY to drift downward rather than grind upward.
USD/JPY : Bulls are coming back?! Let's See! (READ THE CAPTION)Upon analyzing the USD/JPY daily chart, we observe that the price precisely hit our previously forecasted target of 148.65 before declining further to 146.5. Following that, USDJPY rallied back up to 151 and is currently trading around 150.680. Should the price manage to stabilize above 150.5, we can anticipate further gains in this pair. This analysis will be updated accordingly.

USD/JPY USD/JPY: Possible Continuation of Short Position Towards the 141.38 Area, a Very Important Support Zone.
Why do I think this?
Uncertain Geopolitical Situation, JPY as a Safe-Haven Currency.
Technically, the current price has retested the 150 zone (a significant resistance area) without breaking through it. Looking at higher timeframes, the momentum appears to be bearish.
USDJPY Technical AnalysisFenzoFx—USDJPY tested 150.25, a trading range below this level and the 50-period simple moving average. A close above 150.25 can trigger the uptrend, targeting 151.2.
Conversely, a dip below 148.2 invalidates the bullish outlook, with 148.2 as the first target and 147.43 as the secondary target.

USD/JPY 30-Minute Trade Setup: Bullish Reversal from Key SupportEMA (30, close) - Red Line: 149.488 (shorter-term trend)
EMA (200, close) - Blue Line: 149.862 (longer-term trend)
Trade Setup:
Entry Zone: Around 149.000 (marked by the purple support area)
Stop Loss: 148.698 (below the key support level)
Target Point: 150.275 (potential profit level)
Analysis:
Price is currently testing a strong support zone (purple area), suggesting a possible bullish reversal.
The 30 EMA (red) is acting as local resistance.
The 200 EMA (blue) is positioned above, which may act as further resistance if price moves up.
The price action suggests a potential bounce from support, leading to a target around 150.275.

Stop loss is placed slightly below the support zone for risk management.
Target price provides a favorable risk-to-reward ratio of approximately 1:3.

A long (buy) trade is expected if price holds above the support zone.
If price breaks below 148.698, the bullish setup could be invalidated.
A break above 149.862 (200 EMA) would confirm a stronger bullish continuation.
Fundamental Market Analysis for April 2, 2025 USDJPYThe Japanese Yen (JPY) fails to capitalise on the previous day's modest gains against its US counterpart and attracts fresh sellers during Wednesday's Asian session. The USD/JPY pair, however, remains in the range it has been in since the beginning of this week as traders await a new catalyst before positioning for the next leg of directional movement. As such, attention will remain focused on US President Donald Trump's announcement of retaliatory tariffs later today.
Meanwhile, speculation that the slowdown in the economy caused by the tariffs may force the Bank of Japan (BoJ) to keep policy steady for now is undermining the yen. However, investors seem convinced that the BoJ will continue to raise interest rates amid signs of rising inflation in Japan. This is a significant divergence from the growing confidence that the Federal Reserve (BoJ) will resume its rate-cutting cycle in June, and should support the lower-yielding Japanese Yen.
Trade recommendation: SELL 150.00, SL 150.90, TP 148.60

Japan's Business Sentiment Mixed, Yen StrengthensThe Japanese yen has gained ground on Tuesday. In the North American session, USD/JPY is trading at 149.27, down 0.47% on the day.
The yen was red-hot in the fourth quarter of 2024, gaining a massive 9.5% against the US dollar, but has reversed directions in Q1, declining 4.7%.
The Manufacturing Tankan index indicated that confidence among manufacturers eased to 12 in Q1 2025, down from 14 in the previous quarter. This was the lowest level in a year, reflective of growing concern among Japanese manufacturers over US tariff policy.
The Non-manufacturing Tankan index, meanwhile, moved in the opposite direction, climbing to 35 in Q1, up from 33 in the Q4 2024 release. This was the fastest pace of growth since August 1991, as companies are increasingly passing on costs to consumers.
The mixed Tankan report is unlikely to change the cautious stance of the Bank of Japan, which has expressed concerns about the uncertainty caused by the threat of additional US tariffs. The BoJ held rates steady in March and the next meeting is on May 1, with the markets projecting another hold.
US President Donald Trump has threatened to impose wide-ranging tariffs on April 2, leaving US trading partners and the financial markets highly anxious ahead of what Trump has declared "Liberation Day".
It is unclear which countries will be targeted or what the tariff rates will be, which has only added to financial market jitters. If Trump goes ahead with the tariffs and targeted countries retaliate with counter-tariffs, we will be one step closer to a global trade war.
USD/JPY has pushed below support at 149.65. Below, there is support at 149.02
There is resistance at 150.59 and 151.22
My LEAP Competition USDJPY Short Position 01/04/2025This is a position trade in LEAP competition that I'm happy to take. USDJPY is at an interesting position and environment where the USD wants to see more room for downwards and JPY wants to see strength. BOJ is neutral-hawkish although there were moments where they sounded neutral-dovish but overall I think with time jpy will strengthen this year.
USDJPY Set To Grow! BUY!
My dear followers,
This is my opinion on the USDJPY next move:
The asset is approaching an important pivot point 149.16
Bias - Bullish
Technical Indicators: Supper Trend generates a clear long signal while Pivot Point HL is currently determining the overall Bullish trend of the market.
Goal - 150.13
About Used Indicators:
For more efficient signals, super-trend is used in combination with other indicators like Pivot Points.
