ShortI had a few failed short trades in the last few weeks for this pair.    My overall bias is bearish and I must admit having a strong bias cost me.  I was too eager to execute a trade and I ended up front running and instead of reacting to the price action.   This morning, I opened two short positions (1 position size divided into two) for USDJPY . Trade set up: Entry: 150.945Stop Loss: 151.458 Target 1: 149.680 (blue horizontal line - previous week open price, Fair value gap and order block in 4H) Target 2:  148.306 (Previous week low, fair value gap )  Reasons for short entry: Weekly: The price had broken and closed below the previous low at 148.65.  It went up again but it is respecting FVG at 150.50 zone. RSI is starting to enter the bear territory. Daily: The price is still below EMA 200 and is respecting FVG at 150.50 zone. RSI line is still in the bear zone.  4H: The price dropped and closed below the ascending trendline.   I like the candlestick formations at the FVG - very small candles with upper wicks followed by a large engulfing candle.  (1H is better to see the price movement). Sorry, I forgot the name of this formation! RSI is presenting negative divergence. Ideally, it is better to wait for the price to drop, retest and close below 200EMA in 4H and 4H RSI to dive into bear territory.    However, I felt there are enough confluences to support my bias and I like the risk:reward for this set up.   Therefore, I decided to open a short position, but my position size is small. Please let me know what you think.

USDJPY Will Go Lower! Short! Take a look at our analysis for USDJPY. Time Frame: 3h Current Trend: Bearish Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI) Forecast: Bearish The market is on a crucial zone of supply 150.395. The above-mentioned technicals clearly indicate the dominance of sellers on the market. I recommend shorting the instrument, aiming at 149.580 level. P.S Please, note that an oversold/overbought condition can last for a long time, and therefore being oversold/overbought doesn't mean a price rally will come soon, or at all.

JPY/USD Descending Triangle Breakdown – Bearish Trading Setup📌 Overview: Understanding the Current Market Structure This analysis focuses on the JPY/USD pair on the 1-hour timeframe, highlighting a well-defined descending triangle pattern, a classic bearish continuation setup. The price action indicates selling pressure increasing as lower highs form, while support remained relatively stable before ultimately breaking down. This setup suggests a potential trend continuation to the downside, making it a compelling trade opportunity for short-sellers. Let's dive deeper into the technical breakdown, trading strategy, and market expectations. 📊 Technical Breakdown: Chart Pattern Analysis 1️⃣ The Descending Triangle Pattern: A Bearish Signal The descending triangle is one of the most reliable continuation patterns in technical analysis, often leading to a breakdown when support is breached. This chart confirms the pattern through: ✅ Downward Sloping Resistance Line: The price tested this level multiple times but was consistently rejected. Lower highs indicate sellers are dominating and buyers are failing to push higher. ✅ Flat Support Level: The price found strong support at a key horizontal level, bouncing off multiple times. However, each bounce became weaker, signaling buyers losing strength. ✅ Breakout & Confirmation: The final breakdown below support occurred with strong momentum. The price has now turned previous support into resistance, a bearish confirmation. 🔎 Implication: A descending triangle breakout to the downside often results in an extended downward move, aiming for the measured move target based on the triangle’s height. 2️⃣ Key Price Levels & Trading Zones 📌 🔴 Resistance Zone (Upper Triangle Boundary): 0.006700 – 0.006750 This level acted as a strong rejection zone, confirming lower highs. It now serves as a resistance level after the breakdown. 📌 🟢 Support Level (Triangle Base): This level previously held price from breaking lower multiple times. However, with each bounce becoming weaker, it finally gave way. Break & Close below this level confirms the bearish continuation. 📌 🎯 Target Projection (Based on Triangle Breakout): 0.006448 (Final Target) – This level aligns with historical price action and the triangle’s projected move. 📌 🚨 Stop Loss Placement: Above the last swing high (~0.006752) If price reclaims this zone, the bearish outlook becomes invalid. 📈 Price Action & Market Sentiment 3️⃣ Bearish Momentum & Breakdown Confirmation ✅ Lower Highs Indicate Weakness: Buyers attempted multiple recoveries but were consistently rejected at lower levels. This pattern suggests exhaustion in buying pressure. ✅ Breakout Candle Strength & Volume Confirmation: The price broke support with strong momentum and increased volume, confirming sellers’ control. A breakdown without volume is often a fakeout, but this chart shows clear momentum. ✅ Potential Retest Before Further Drop: After a breakdown, price often retests the broken support before continuing lower. A pullback to the resistance zone (~0.006650 - 0.006700) could offer an ideal short entry. ✅ Bearish Trend Confirmation: The price remains below key resistance and continues forming lower lows. The downtrend structure remains intact, reinforcing the bearish sentiment. 📉 Trading Strategy: How to Trade This Setup? 🔹 Entry Strategy: Ideal Entry: Short after a pullback to broken support (~0.006650 - 0.006700). Aggressive Entry: Short immediately on the breakdown if momentum remains strong. 🔹 Stop Loss Placement: Place above last swing high (0.006752) to avoid being stopped out by noise. Ensures protection against sudden bullish reversals or fakeouts. 🔹 Take Profit Targets: ✅ First Target: 0.006500 (Psychological level) ✅ Final Target: 0.006448 (Triangle measured move) 🔹 Risk Management: Use a Risk-to-Reward ratio (RRR) of at least 1:2 for an optimal trade setup. Never risk more than 2% of total capital per trade. ⚠️ Market Outlook & Key Watchpoints 📌 Scenario 1: Bearish Continuation (High Probability) If price retests the broken support and faces rejection, expect further downside. Target remains at 0.006448. 📌 Scenario 2: Fake Breakdown & Bullish Reversal (Low Probability) If price closes above 0.006750, it invalidates the bearish setup. In that case, a bullish move towards 0.006800+ is possible. 📢 Final Thoughts: The bearish breakout is clear, but waiting for a proper pullback before entry is ideal. Volume confirmation is crucial to avoid fakeouts. If support turns into resistance, a high-probability short trade is set up. 🔹 What’s your take on this setup? Will JPY/USD reach its target?

USDJPY Long BiasThe USDJPY pair on the 4H timeframe is forming a bullish structure, showing signs of continuation to the upside. The price is currently trading above key moving averages and consolidating near a resistance-turned-support zone, indicating potential bullish momentum. Additionally, the formation resembles an inverse head and shoulders pattern, a strong bullish reversal signal. A successful break and retest of the 151.200 zone could confirm further upside movement, with the next key target around 156.700. However, failure to hold above the support zone may lead to a deeper retracement before resuming the uptrend.

Fundamental Market Analysis for March 28, 2025 USDJPYEvent to pay attention to today: 14:30 EET. USD - Core PCE Price Index USDJPY: On Friday, during the Asian session, the Japanese yen (JPY) fell to a near four-week low against its US counterpart. This was due to concerns that US President Donald Trump's trade tariffs could affect key domestic exports. However, the release of robust consumer inflation data from Tokyo provided a welcome respite for those anticipating a more hawkish stance from the Bank of Japan (BoJ), potentially paving the way for further interest rate hikes. The BoJ's opinion summary also indicates that a rate hike remains a possibility should the economy and prices align with forecasts. Additionally, the prevailing risk-off environment, triggered by Trump's imposition of auto tariffs late Wednesday, has served to support the safe-haven yen, leading to a fall in the USD/JPY pair below 151.00 in the last hour. However, the emergence of some US Dollar (USD) dip buying could support the currency pair and help limit further losses. Additionally, traders may adopt a wait-and-see approach, preferring to observe the US Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) price index to ascertain the Federal Reserve's (Fed) rate-cutting intentions. Trade recommendation: BUY 151.000, SL 150.400, TP 151.750

USD/JPY Nears 200-dma Re-Test After 150 DefenseUSD/JPY has continued to snag bears with several bear traps so far this year. While there was a series of lower-lows in the first part of March, as the USD was plummeting against most major currencies, USD/JPY has turned around over the past three weeks, and is now nearing a re-test of the 200-day moving average. The 150.77 Fibonacci level held the highs on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, and that now becomes a spot of higher-low support potential for pullback scenarios. For next resistance, the 151.51 Fibonacci level is nearing confluence with the 200-day moving average, and the 151.95 level remains important. If bulls can stretch the move, that seems a logical area to look for a pause in the trend. - js
