USDJPY below psychologically important 150.00 levelThe USDJPY fell below the psychologically important 150.00 level. Markets are pricing in a roughly 84% chance of a 25bps hike at the BoJ July meeting, up from a 70% chance at the start of the month. The USDJPY currency pair price action sentiment appears bearish, supported by the longer-term prevailing downtrend. The key trading level is at 150.80, which is the current swing high. An oversold rally from the current levels and a bearish rejection from the 150.80 level could target the downside support at 149.20 followed by 147.90 and 147.20 levels over the longer timeframe. Alternatively, a confirmed breakout above 150.80 resistance and a daily close above that level would negate the bearish outlook opening the way for further rallies higher and a retest of 152.30 resistance level followed by 154.40.

USD/JPY Recovers After Dropping Below 150 Yen per DollarUSD/JPY Recovers After Dropping Below 150 Yen per Dollar As the USD/JPY chart shows: → Yesterday, the pair fell below the psychological level of 150 yen per dollar. → However, today it staged a strong recovery, rising back above this level. The yen weakened following the release of Japan's inflation data. According to Forex Factory, the National Core CPI increased by 3.2% year-over-year (forecast: 3.1%, previous: 3.0%). According to Reuters: → The 19-month high in CPI strengthens expectations of further interest rate hikes in Japan. → The yen is weakening as Bank of Japan Governor Kazuo Ueda stated that the central bank may step up government bond purchases if long-term interest rates rise. Can USD/JPY Continue to Rise? USD/JPY Technical Analysis On 12th February, we noted that key highs and lows over the past three months formed an ascending channel, with the 154 yen per dollar level acting as a resistance barrier. Indeed, since then, bulls have failed to sustain levels above 154 yen per dollar (as indicated by the arrow), leading to a decline below the lower boundary of the blue channel after a brief rebound on 18th February. As a result, the former support at the lower boundary of the blue channel may now act as resistance around 151.3 yen per dollar, reinforcing the relevance of the descending channel (marked in red). The trajectory of USD/JPY today could be significantly influenced by the release of the US Flash Manufacturing PMI and Flash Services PMI indices at 16:45 GMT+2. Trade on TradingView with FXOpen.

Why Morgan Stanley and MUFG back JPY? Morgan Stanley and MUFG both see the Japanese yen as the strongest G10 currency in 2025. They expect it to gain value as U.S. interest rates fall and Japan’s central bank raises its own. On the daily chart, USD/JPY oscillators are still away from being in the oversold zone, suggesting that the path of least resistance could to the downside. MUFG predicts further yen gains, especially against the euro, and has set a target of 150 for EUR/JPY, down from 157. Morgan Stanley also favors the Australian dollar. Meanwhile they believe the New Zealand dollar will appreciate but underperform the Australian dollar due to a weaker domestic outlook.

USD/JPY Breaking Lower, Fib Levels in Play📉 Key Breakdown Below 150.00 USD/JPY has fallen sharply, breaking below key support at 151.50 (38.2% Fib retracement) and testing 149.63 (50% Fib level). The pair is trading below both the 50-day EMA (153.80) and 200-day EMA (152.17), reinforcing downside pressure. 🔍 Technical Levels to Watch: Support: 149.23 (50% Fib retracement) → Current price is testing this level. 146.95 (61.8% Fib retracement) → Next major downside target. 143.71 (78.6% Fib retracement) → Deeper bearish target. Resistance: 151.50 (38.2% Fib retracement, former support, now resistance) 152.17 (200-day EMA) → A key level to reclaim for bulls. 📊 Momentum Indicators Bearish: RSI at 33.18 → Near oversold territory, but still trending downward. Bearish momentum accelerating, further losses possible. 🔻 What’s Next? If USD/JPY holds below 150.00, expect further downside toward 146.95. A recovery above 151.50 could neutralize the immediate bearish outlook. Right now, momentum favors the bears, and lower Fib levels remain in focus. -MW

USDJPY weaker on hawkish BoJ expectationsThe JPY (Japanese Yen) continues to strengthen against US Dollaar amid rising bets for additional BoJ rate hikes. The USDJPY currency pair price action sentiment appears bearish, supported by the longer-term prevailing downtrend. The key trading level is at 152.50, which is the current swing high. An oversold rally from the current levels and a bearish rejection from the 152.50 level could target the downside support at 149.30 followed by 147.80 and 147.20 levels over the longer timeframe. Alternatively, a confirmed breakout above 152.50 resistance and a daily close above that level would negate the bearish outlook, opening the way for further rallies higher and a retest of 154.30 resistance level followed by 155.70.

USDCHF Bullish Flag: Breakout Targeting 0.94000USDCHF is currently trading at 0.90200, with a bullish flag pattern forming, signaling a potential breakout toward the 0.94000 target. The bullish flag is a continuation pattern that typically follows a strong upward move, followed by a period of consolidation before the next leg higher. If the price successfully breaks above the flag’s upper trendline, it could trigger a bullish wave, pushing USDCHF toward its next resistance levels. From a technical perspective, the flag’s consolidation phase suggests temporary indecision in the market. However, as long as the price remains above key support levels and breaks out with strong volume, the bullish momentum is likely to continue. A confirmed breakout above the resistance could provide an entry opportunity for traders aiming for the 0.94000 target. Fundamentally, the US dollar remains supported by the Federal Reserve’s cautious stance on interest rate cuts. Recent economic data from the US, including inflation figures and labor market strength, have kept the dollar strong against the Swiss franc. Meanwhile, the Swiss National Bank (SNB) maintains a relatively dovish stance, which could further weaken CHF and support the bullish case for USDCHF. In summary, USDCHF is forming a bullish flag pattern, awaiting a breakout for further upside movement. A strong breakout above the resistance level could trigger a rally toward 0.94000, supported by both technical and fundamental factors. Traders should closely monitor price action and key economic events to confirm the bullish continuation.

Short All weekly momentum indicators IMACD, RSI and Stochastic) are all bearish, so I have been looking for a short opportunity in 4H and daily charts. $151.85 is the major resistance and support zone (black horizontal line in the chart).  On Feb 6, USD/JPY broke and closed below the area, but it failed to continue to the downside. In the following few days, it retraced to Fib 0.5 area but started to move down. Today the price broke below Fib 0.236.   I like the yesterday's strong red candle, cancelling all the buy pressure from the previous day.  I opened a short position this morning.   Entry at $152.83. Stop Loss: $155.145 Target 1: $149.52  (move stop loss to the entry level once it hits this level) Target 2: $147.395
