🔔🔔🔔USD/JPY news:
➡️The USD/JPY pair reached a two-week high of around 149.93 during the Asian session on Tuesday as renewed geopolitical concerns in the Middle East boosted demand for the safe-haven US dollar. However, further gains appear uncertain due to diverging expectations between the Bank of Japan (BoJ) and the Federal Reserve, as well as rising trade tensions.
➡️On Wednesday, the BoJ is widely anticipated to maintain its current interest rates. Inflationary momentum in Japan remains strong, especially after major corporations agreed to meet their unions' substantial wage demands last week. The extent to which this trend extends to smaller businesses in the coming months will be crucial in determining the potential for future rate hikes.
Personal opinion:
➡️This could be a corrective rally to gain momentum for a further strong downtrend. The BOJ's policy is expected to raise the policy rate while the Fed is expected to keep the federal funds rate unchanged.
➡️The double bottom pattern is gradually forming and so the downtrend is still there
Analysis:
➡️Based on price action combined with resistance - support levels and EMA to come up with a suitable strategy
