The market is predicting that the BoJ could raise interest rates by 10bps to 0.1% and is expected to announce plans to cut its bond buying program.

USD/JPY is down nearly 13% from its July peak and stocks are headed for a bearish market. Japanese government bond yields also dropped the most in two decades. The slide in bond yields weighed on banks' earnings, sending shares of Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, the nation's largest lender, down a record 21% during the session.Comment
USD/JPY is trading below the 50-day and 200-day EMA, confirming the bearish bias. If USD/JPY recovers to 142.5, it will open up the possibility of testing the resistance area at 143.49. In case of overcoming the threshold of 143.49, buyers can push the exchange rate towards the next resistance mark at 145.89. It is important to note the impact of Japanese GDP figures and key US economic indicators. Conversely, if the exchange rate falls below 142, it could trigger stronger selling momentum, towards the support area of 141.03. The 14-day RSI is at 32.46, showing that USD/JPY may continue to fall to the 142 area before entering an oversold state.
