USDJPY – Downtrend Continues, 143.500 Is the Key Zone

165
USDJPY is moving within a clear descending channel and is now approaching the strong resistance area at 143.500 – where the EMA 34, EMA 89, and the upper trendline all converge.

Historically, each time price touched this zone, a strong rejection followed. If the same happens again, we could see a move back down to 142.000 and potentially 140.500.

On the fundamental side, the recently released U.S. ISM Services data disappointed, fueling expectations that the Fed might cut rates sooner – adding bearish pressure to the USD.

Preferred scenario: watch for price reaction around 143.500 to enter a short position in line with the downtrend.
