Fundamental Market Analysis for April 10, 2025 USDJPYThe Japanese yen (JPY) showed strength during the Asian trading session on Thursday, reacting to the release of producer price index (PPI) data that exceeded market expectations. This macroeconomic signal reinforced speculation about possible further monetary policy tightening by the Bank of Japan (BoJ), keeping the probability of an interest rate hike in the future. Additional support for the yen was provided by positive expectations of a potential trade agreement between Japan and the United States. Amid the weakening of the US dollar (USD), the USD/JPY pair showed a pullback and fell below the psychologically important level of 147.000, which was also supported by a limited correction of the US currency amid a general recovery in market confidence. The divergence in monetary expectations between the Bank of Japan and the Federal Reserve remains significant. While Japan is increasingly likely to tighten monetary policy, markets in the US are pricing in a scenario of multiple cuts in the Fed's key interest rate in 2025. This discrepancy has prevented the US dollar from maintaining momentum after an overnight recovery from a weekly low, prompting a reallocation of capital in favor of the more stable yen despite its status as a low-yielding currency. Improved global risk sentiment, driven by US President Donald Trump's announcement of a temporary suspension of retaliatory tariffs against key trading partners, may also help strengthen the yen as a safe haven asset, especially amid continued uncertainty in international markets. Trade recommendation: SELL 146.800, SL 147.400, TP 145.400

Yen Climbs as Trump Softens Stance on Japan TariffsThe Japanese yen strengthened past 147 per dollar on Thursday, moving in a volatile range as trade tensions persisted. Markets reacted to President Trump’s 90-day pause on tariffs for non-retaliating countries, offering Japan some relief with a reduced 10% baseline tariff. However, tensions remained elevated as Trump raised tariffs on Chinese imports to 125% in response to Beijing’s retaliation. The EU may be excluded from the pause due to its own countermeasures. Meanwhile, the U.S. confirmed plans to begin trade talks with Japan after Trump’s call with Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba. Key resistance is at 148.70, with further levels at 152.70 and 157.70. Support stands at 145.60, followed by 143.00 and 141.80.

USD/JPY 4H Chart – Technical & Fundamental AnalysisUSD/JPY 4H Chart – Technical & Fundamental Analysis On the 4-hour time frame, price is in a clear downtrend, forming lower highs and lower lows. As the downward movement continues, we’ve identified a minor key resistance level at 148.800, along with two minor key support levels — one at 146.000 near the current price, and another at 140.400. Price has already broken below the minor support, triggering sellers’ pending orders. This also serves as an accumulation phase for market makers. As expected, price did not immediately continue pushing lower below the next support level. Instead, market makers aimed for a liquidity hunt — which has now occurred, pushing price upwards and liquidating sellers' stop-losses, creating a clear liquidity zone. Our current objective is to wait for price to break below the minor key level and then place a sell stop order at 145.920, with a stop-loss at 148.100 (above the liquidity zone), and take-profit at 140.960 — the next minor support. This setup offers a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio. Fundamental Outlook: USD/JPY remains under pressure amid a weakening U.S. dollar, driven by soft labor market data and heightened economic uncertainty. This week’s U.S. Unemployment Claims are projected at 223K, up from 219K, reflecting potential labor market softening. A higher-than-expected print may dampen expectations for additional rate hikes by the Federal Reserve, weighing further on the dollar. In contrast, the Japanese yen has strengthened on the back of improved domestic data and renewed safe-haven demand. Upward revisions to Japan’s GDP, along with stable inflation figures, have increased confidence in the yen. Furthermore, recent remarks from the Bank of Japan hinting at a more hawkish tone have added to the currency’s appeal. Global geopolitical risks — including potential trade tensions tied to former President Trump’s resurgence — are also reinforcing the yen’s safe-haven status. 📌 Disclaimer: This analysis is for informational and educational purposes only and should not be considered financial advice.

Another tariff u-turn: Oil overbought on news? President Trump announced a 90-day pause on reciprocal tariffs for countries that have not retaliated, sparking a sharp rally in U.S. markets. The Nasdaq 100 led gains with a 12.2% surge. The U.S. dollar also strengthened against safe-haven currencies such as the Japanese yen and Swiss franc. Crude oil prices rebounded alongside equities, with oil futures rising more than 4% to trade above $62 per barrel. However, the strength of the oil rally may be overstated. China, one of the world’s largest oil consumers, was among the first to retaliate against U.S. tariffs. Tensions between Washington and Beijing have worsened, prompting the U.S. to raise tariffs on Chinese goods to 125%. Adding to the caution, analysts at Goldman Sachs revised down their 2026 average price forecasts for Brent and WTI, citing rising recession risks. The bank now expects Brent to average $58 per barrel and WTI to average $55.

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.

Yen surges to six-month high, BoJ cautiousThe Japanese yen continues to make inroads against the US dollar. In the North American session, USD/JPY is up 1.1% on Wednesday, trading at 144.60. Earlier, the yen strengthened to 143.98, its strongest level since Sept. 2024. Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda said on Wednesday that the central bank will have to determine the impact of US trade policy on growth and inflation in Japan. Ueda said that US tariffs had created new uncertainty and signaled that the BoJ might hold off on further interest rates until the situation became more clear. Ueda repeated that the BoJ would raise rates if the economy continued to improve, and currently, underlying inflation was rising and moving closer to 2% target. The uptake is that the BoJ is being very cautious with all the turmoil in the markets and is dampening expectations of a rate hike at the May 1 meeting. FOMC minutes - still relevant? The Federal Reserve will post its minutes of the March rate meeting. Investors scrutinize the minutes for policy clarity but global economic developments are unfolding so quickly that it's questionable if the minutes will be relevant with the massive market sell-off and the trade war between the US and China. Earlier today, the US lifted tariffs on China to an astounding 104% and China has retaliated with an 84% counter-tariff. The turmoil in the financial markets has nervous investors looking for safer shores, and are parking their funds in safe-haven assets like the Japanese yen and the Swiss franc. In April, the yen has jumped 3.3% against the US dollar, while the Swiss franc has soared 5% against the greenback. USD/JPY has pushed below support at 145.46 and is putting pressure on support at 144.64 There is resistance at 146.79 and 147.61

USDJPY Bearish continuation below 148.10The 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: 148.10 (critical level), 150.10, 150.90 Support Levels: 144.20, 143.00, 141.40 Bearish Scenario: A rejection from the 148.10 resistance level could reaffirm the downside bias, leading to a continuation of the bearish move toward 142.20, with extended declines targeting 143.00 and 141.40 over the longer timeframe. Bullish Scenario: A breakout above 148.10 with a daily close above this level would challenge the bearish sentiment, opening the door for further gains toward 150.10, followed by 150.90. Conclusion: The market sentiment remains bearish, with 148.10 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.
