USD/JPY Analysis: Bearish Bias with Multi-Market Confluence!📉 USDJPY Technical Breakdown – Yen Strength in Focus 📉 In this video, we take a close look at the USD/JPY, which is currently under pressure and trending to the downside 🔽. The bearish momentum is clear, but there are several key factors to consider before positioning ourselves for a potential short 📊. 🔍 First, it’s important to monitor the equity markets. If we start to see a pullback or sell-off in the stock indices 🏦📉, that could translate into further yen strength, adding weight to a USD/JPY short bias 💴💪. Another key piece of confluence is comparing the DXY (Dollar Index) 📈 with the JXY (Japanese Yen Index) 📉. This gives us deeper insight into the relative strength of each currency and helps confirm our directional bias before entering a trade ⚖️. 🔁 Coming back to the USD/JPY chart, we’re watching for a retracement into a Fibonacci point of interest, which could provide a high-probability area to enter a sell setup. If price reacts from that level and confirms with structure, we could have a clean opportunity for continuation 🔂🎯. ⚠️ This is not financial advice — always conduct your own analysis and manage risk accordingly.

USDJPY – The downtrend continues, channel still leads the wayLooking at the D1 chart, USDJPY remains firmly within the descending channel that has persisted since the end of 2024. Every time the price approaches the upper boundary of the channel, selling pressure reappears – and the recent touch around the 147.012 area is no exception. After being rejected at this strong resistance zone, the price has turned lower and is now forming a pullback structure within the prevailing trend. EMA34 and EMA89 continue to slope downward, reinforcing the bearish momentum. If the price gets rejected again around the 145–146 region, the correction pattern may complete, opening up room for a drop toward the support zone at 142.343, or even deeper toward the channel bottom near 137.168. In summary, the primary trend remains bearish – and the preferred strategy now is "sell on rally" when the price nears the upper resistance of the channel. Patience and watching for price action will be key.

USD/JPY Rebounds from Support — Bulls Back in Play?USD/JPY looks like it’s found its feet. After tagging support near the April VPOC (142.71) and 6 May low (142.36), Thursday’s session printed the first bullish candle in over a week — a spinning top just above key support. The daily RSI (2) bounced from its most oversold reading in a month, and the 1-hour chart shows bullish divergence on the RSI (14), now comfortably above 50. Price has lifted from the monthly S2 and is circling S1. If USD/JPY can push through yesterday’s high (144.40), I’m looking toward 145, 145.86 and potentially the 146 handle, which aligns with the monthly pivot at 146.38. ** Please note that Japan's CPI data drops in ~25 mins ** Matt Simpson, Market Analyst at City Index and Forex.com

UPDATE ON USDJPY Buy Bias Analysis – May 2025Earlier this week, I maintained a bullish bias on USDJPY after the price reversed from the weekly demand zone at 139.901 on April 21, 2025, supported by bullish seasonality and strong institutional positioning. However, during the first three days of this week, USDJPY pulled back to around 142.814, moving below the initial point of interest. This short-term bearish move tested sentiment, but price has now reached a daily demand zone, where a bullish indecision candle is currently forming. This candle signals a potential shift in momentum, suggesting that the bulls may be regaining control. With the seasonal trend, institutional long positions, and a technical support zone aligning, the setup remains valid — only delayed. The Yen's recent strength, driven by its safe-haven appeal, is likely to fade as the USD begins to assert dominance once again. This sets the stage for a possible continuation of the broader bullish move. I maintain my buy bias on USDJPY, with a focus on price action confirmation at current levels. FOLLOW ME FOR WEEKLY BIAS.

Analysis of USD/JPYDuring the European session, USD/JPY recovered its early losses and traded flat near 143.50. After three consecutive days of declines, the US dollar attracted buying interest on Thursday, pushing the pair higher. Against the backdrop of rising safe-haven demand for the Japanese yen and a generally weak US dollar, USD/JPY had fallen to a two-week low. The yen also benefited from upbeat machinery order data, which overshadowed recession concerns and boosted hopes for an economic recovery. This provided support for the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to further raise interest rates. Combined with sustained safe-haven buying, this has kept the yen strong. In the market, there are no absolutes, and neither upward nor downward trends are set in stone. Therefore, the ability to judge the balance between market gains and losses is your key to success. Let money become our loyal servant.

JPY Hits 2-Week High as Dollar WeakensThe Japanese yen strengthened to around 143 per dollar on Thursday, its highest in over two weeks, as concerns over the U.S. fiscal outlook pressured the dollar. Fears that Trump’s proposed tax cuts could add over $3 trillion to U.S. debt weighed on investor confidence. Japan’s Finance Minister Kato said he did not discuss currency levels with Treasury Secretary Bessent at the G7 summit. Domestically, core machinery orders surged 13% in March, beating expectations of a 1.6% drop, while May PMI data showed continued weakness in both manufacturing and services.

Fundamental Market Analysis for May 22, 2025 USDJPYEvents to pay attention to today: 15:30 EET. USD - Unemployment Claims 16:45 EET. USD - Services PMI USDJPY: The Japanese Yen (JPY) demonstrated resilience by rebounding from an early decline during the Asian trading session. This recovery was largely influenced by positive machinery orders data from Japan, which effectively quashed recession fears and significantly bolstered expectations of an economic recovery. This occurred in anticipation of the Bank of Japan (BoJ) potentially raising interest rates again in 2025, which would have been a positive development for the JPY. Furthermore, flight to safety is identified as a contributing factor to the strengthening of the yen. The proposed tax bill introduced by US President Donald Trump has led to concerns regarding the financial stability of the US government. This, in addition to the resurgence of tensions between the US and China, is exerting downward pressure on global risk sentiment and prompting investors to seek refuge in traditional safe haven assets, including the yen. This, coupled with the prevailing US Dollar (USD) selling bias, has led to the USD/JPY pair reaching a two-week low, approaching the round figure of 143.00 on Thursday. Trade recommendation: SELL 143.100, SL 143.700, TP 142.350

UJ Could Tumble Back To 140 If Bears Take Expanding RangeToday FX:USDJPY Sellers make a Breakout of the Rising Support of the Expanding Range it's been trading in since the Low that started the range back on April 22nd. An Expanding Range is typically considered a Continuation Pattern suggesting that if Sellers can hold price under the Rising Support, we can suspect JPY to overcome USD in this pair pulling price down continuing the Downtrend it was in prior to entering the pattern. Once the Breakout of Consolidation is Validated, a Breakout & Retest of the Rising Support could deliver potential Short Opportunities to take price down to the Low of the Range. Fundamentally, there is a lot of worry about the fall out of Tariff Talks with important trade partners with the 90-Day grace period soon coming to an end, weakening labor market potentially signaling "Stagflation" and additionally, it is suspected that Trump's Tax Cut Bill could add $3 - $5 Trillion to the $36.2 Trillion debt the US is already suffering from, further harming the Dollar. -https://www.tradingview.com/news/reuters.com,2025:newsml_L1N3RT018:0-dollar-on-defensive-as-traders-eye-trump-tax-bill-g7-currency-talks/ -https://www.tradingview.com/news/te_news:459470:0-dollar-extends-losses/

USDJPY BULLISH IDEA🧱 Key Observations Order Block (OB) Marked (Demand Zone): A clearly marked bullish order block (OB) zone is highlighted in pink around the 139.883 low. This zone likely represents institutional buying interest. It was the origin of a strong bullish move that broke prior structure. Price Action: After a series of higher highs and higher lows, price has retraced significantly. It's approaching the order block area again, potentially for a retest or liquidity grab. Heikin Ashi Candles: Recent candles are bearish, showing momentum to the downside. However, these candles typically lag in reversals, so price may soon shift if it hits the OB zone. Projected Move: A large blue upward arrow is drawn, suggesting an anticipated bullish reversal from the OB zone with a potential move back to 148.647 (recent high). 📊 Technical Implication Bullish Bias if price holds within or just above the OB zone. Watch for bullish reversal signals (engulfing patterns, divergence, or break of minor structure). If price breaks below 139.883 decisively, the bullish setup may be invalidated. 📌 Strategy Idea (Not Financial Advice): Entry Zone: 140.000–139.900 (inside OB) Stop Loss: Below 139.800 Target: ~148.500 Risk/Reward: Favorable if OB holds

USDJPY Bearish in the short term.The USD/JPY exchange rate extended its recent downward trend during the European session, falling for the third consecutive trading day and marking the sixth decline in the past seven trading days. It hit a two-week low in the 143.45 area during the European morning session. Multiple factors have jointly driven the exchange rate lower, indicating that the sharp pullback from the monthly high of 148.65 reached last Monday may continue to extend. The Japanese yen is supported by market expectations that the Bank of Japan (BOJ) will raise interest rates again and has gained additional momentum from the rebound in risk-aversion demand. In the short term, USD/JPY maintains a downward trend, with technical indicators showing that bears are in control. 142.210 will be a key support level; a break below this level could accelerate the decline toward the 139.887 area. In the market, there are no absolutes, and neither upward nor downward trends are set in stone. Therefore, the ability to judge the balance between market gains and losses is your key to success.

USDJPY TRADE PLAN – MAY 21 BIG BREAKOUT AHEAD?USDJPY TRADE PLAN – MAY 21 | FED HAWKISH BUT YEN STAYS WEAK – BIG BREAKOUT AHEAD? USDJPY is entering a critical technical zone as the market weighs the Fed’s persistent hawkish stance against Japan’s passive approach to the Yen’s depreciation. After a strong rally, we are seeing a potential exhaustion with key levels in play. 🌍 MACRO CONTEXT: FED remains hawkish: Officials continue to support higher-for-longer interest rates to tame inflation → USD remains firm. Bank of Japan silence: No signs of FX intervention or rate policy shift, causing ongoing weakness in JPY. Risk sentiment neutral: Risk-off flows are muted; USDJPY remains trapped in a wide range – awaiting macro catalysts. 📊 TECHNICAL OUTLOOK (H2 CHART): Price is now correcting within a falling channel. Price broke below the MA200 and rising trendline, now retesting a key support zone at 143.77. The current range 141.99 – 144.71 is critical – a breakout from either end may dictate the next medium-term direction. 🎯 TRADE SETUPS FOR TODAY: ✅ SCENARIO A – SELL THE RALLY (PRIMARY BIAS): If price rejects 144.71: SELL ZONE: 144.70 – 144.71 SL: 145.10 TP: 143.77 → 143.30 → 142.50 → 141.99 → Key resistance area – price may trigger strong seller interest. ✅ SCENARIO B – SELL ON BREAKDOWN: If price breaks 143.77 and retests: SELL ZONE: 143.60 – 143.70 (post-breakdown entry) SL: 144.10 TP: 142.50 → 142.00 → 141.99 ✅ SCENARIO C – SHORT-TERM BUY (LESS FAVORABLE): If price reacts positively at 141.99 with bullish confirmation: BUY ZONE: 141.90 – 141.99 SL: 141.50 TP: 142.50 → 143.00 → 143.77 → Only take this setup if strong reversal signals appear. 🔑 KEY LEVELS TO WATCH: Resistance: 144.71 – 145.00 – 148.44 Support: 143.77 – 143.30 – 141.99 – 141.20 📌 FINAL THOUGHTS: USDJPY remains in a volatile consolidation zone, pressured by a hawkish Fed but lacking JPY strength. Watch for PMI data and Fed comments this week for directional cues. Until then, respect the current range and trade with discipline. 📣 Bias favors SELL from 144.71 unless buyers reclaim full control – trade the reaction, not the prediction!

Bearish Pressure on USDJPY Likely to Continue With Higher YieldsUSDJPY was rejected at the 38.2% retracement level. Rising yields may continue to exert downward pressure until the 140 support level is tested. The true direction for USDJPY will likely become clearer after that test. Similar to USDJPY, EURJPY has also formed a bearish technical outlook. You can check our earlier post on EURJPY here: Unless EURUSD rises sharply, the downward pressure on both USDJPY and EURJPY is likely to persist.

USDJPY Tap and Dump – Perfect Lower Timeframe ReversalSmart Money Scalpers, it’s time to eat 🍽️ USDJPY just played into a beautiful supply zone rejection on the 30-minute chart, with clean confluence from structure, trendlines, and OB reaction. Let’s break it down like a pro: 🧠 Market Structure Narrative: 🔻 Strong bearish momentum 🔹 Price created a clear lower low 🔹 Pullback into a premium zone = sniper short entry setup You’re looking at textbook bearish order flow, with price rejecting hard from the 143.805 zone, which served as a high-risk institutional POI (Point of Interest). 🟥 Supply Zone / OB Zone: 📌 OB Range: Top: 143.805 Bottom: 143.639 This red zone triggered the last bearish impulse and was just tapped and rejected with precision. The reaction candle wick shows clear rejection = institutions likely mitigating and initiating shorts. 📐 Trendline Confluence: You’ve got a perfect descending channel running down with clean touches on both trendlines. Price bounced off the upper line → trendline + OB = double whammy setup 💥 🎯 Entry Plan: Entry: 143.512 SL: 143.805 (above OB) TP: 142.358 (next liquidity pocket) This gives a juicy RRR of around 3.9–4x, depending on your exact fill. 🎯 Why This Works: Price reacted to a clear OB Inside a descending channel Weak bullish push = no conviction Favorable RRR = asymmetrical edge Perfect combo of SMC + structure + execution = sniper-grade entry 🔫 🧠 Key Lesson: “Let price come to you. Smart Money doesn’t chase — it traps and snaps.” This is a trap sprung with surgical precision. Execution was key — and you nailed it. 🗣️ If this setup hit your radar too, drop a “🎯” in the comments 📌 Save this — these are the trades that build your bankroll over time.
