UsdjpyUSD/JPY turns south to test 157.00 in Thursday's Asian trading, erasing early gains. The pair loses traction as risk sentiment deteriorates on bleak Chinese PMI data and revives the safe-haven demand for the Japanese Yen. Thin liquidity conditions also exaggerate USD/JPY moves as Japan is on holiday.
USDJPY SHORT USDJPY Will now enter its corrective phase towards the 38.2 fib retracement, the Macro economic differential Remains High between USD and JPY this move will serve as a cool down period for the USD, and with BOJ threatening Rate hikes, the upside is capped for USDJPY Currently.
If you like the idea give it a thumbs up!
USDJPY SELL STOPI have a stop loss of a 100 pip in place for my short here, the first target is 1:2,15 RR. My long term short trend is based off of the sentiments or fundamentals. I believe we will be seeing a lot of shorts for the month of January.
USDJPYThe potential BUY scenario for the pair
The pair is under observation as it approaches the designated BUY zone on the chart.
A December to forget for the yenAs the global markets reopen have the New Years' Day, Japanese markets are closed for a holiday. It's a very light economic calendar today, with no Japanese releases and only one US tier event - unemployment claims. In the European session, USD/JPY is currently trading at 157.12, down 0.12% on the day. We can expect a quiet day for the yen.
December was absolutely dismal for the yen, which lost which plunged 11% against the US dollar. On Tuesday, the yen dropped to 158.07 per dollar, its lowest level since early July. Investors are nervous that Tokyo could intervene in the currency markets in order to stem the yen's sharp drop. Is the 160 level the red line in the sand for Japanese authorities?
Earlier in the week, Japan's Manufacturing PMI was revised to 49.6, up from 49.5 in the initial estimate and above the November reading of 49.0. This marked the sixth straight deceleration in manufacturing activity but was the highest level since September. Manufacturers' sentiment was relatively strong, with optimism for improvement in the semiconductor and auto markets, which have been hit hard over the past several months.
The Bank of Japan doesn't typically telegraph its intentions to the market. One reason is the central bank doesn't want to tip its hand to speculators, who are looking to cash in on the yen's sharp swings. The BoJ summary of opinions from the December meeting provide some insights, as the summary indicated that some Bank policymakers are leaning toward a rate hike in the near future.
The summary showed that there is a split among the nine-member board over rate policy. The hawkish members argued that conditions are falling into place as inflation is steady and the yen is sliding lower. The doves countered that wage growth is lagging behind inflation. Governor Ueda could be the decisive vote and investors will be following his every word right up to the January 24 meeting.
There is resistance at 157.38 and 158.09
USD/JPY tested support at 156.70 earlier. Below, there is support at 155.59
USDJPY LoongBased on the previous setup (shorting the cuurency), I had anticipated that this currency will make a correction before going loong.
The fact that the price has already touched and rebounded on Novembers Monthly high means that the price has formed its lower low.
The price can now be drawn to the order block at 160.3 or buyside liquidity at 161.9
USDJPYWell, we are now at a new year, and my expectations are there will be some retracements to be made on the pair.
Considering that the previous analysis was bullish, I am still anticipating on the same, but we have to fill in some imbalances and inefficiencies on the lower side. I do anticipate that the price might first retract on the lower side to form an LL / wick, which might touch 2023 yearly HH at 152.
Target 152, SL at 157.8

USD/JPY H4 | Falling to multi-swing-low supportUSD/JPY is falling towards a multi-swing-low support and could potentially bounce off this level to climb higher.
Buy entry is at 156.07 which is a multi-swing-low support that aligns with the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement.
Stop loss is at 154.30 which is a level that sits under an overlap support and the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement.
Take profit is at 158.03 which is a swing-high-resistance.

USDJPY Pattern FormationThis pair has started to build a bearish momentum for the past few hours.
I do anticipate that the pair might revisit the 4H FVG and -OB once more before going on a massive bearish run filling in the BISI FVGs and sell side liquidity sweeps that it left.
For the long position, entry at 156.7, Sl at 156.25 and TP at 156.7

Trade Plan:
Entry: Sell limit at , targeting a reversal from the liquidity zone.
Stop Loss: Above the recent liquidity sweep to account for market volatility.
Take Profit: Targeting support levels around to maximize the risk-reward ratio.
Risk Management:

Fundamental Market Analysis for January 02, 2025 USDJPYThe USD/JPY exchange rate rose to 157.300 in the early hours of Asian trading on Thursday.Expectations that US interest rates will remain elevated for a long time are boosting the US Dollar (USD) against the Japanese Yen (JPY).Markets in Japan are closed for the rest of the week.On Friday, we will be keeping a close eye on the S&P Global US Manufacturing Activity Index for December.
Traders are currently digesting the Federal Reserve's (Fed) decision to cut rates by a quarter point at its December meeting, which was characterised by a hawkish sentiment. Analysts are anticipating that some of Trump's policy proposals, including tariffs, could potentially lead to higher inflation. However, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has stated that it is too early to predict this, emphasising that the central bank will proceed with caution regarding further rate cuts.The significant difference in interest rates between the US and Japan is likely to provide a favourable tailwind for the pair in the near term.
Bank of Japan (BOJ) Governor Kazuo Ueda stated last week that the central bank anticipates the Japanese economy will move closer to achieving its 2% inflation target sustainably this year.The BOJ is scheduled to release its quarterly report on the regional economy next week, which is likely to include an assessment of wage increases across the country. This report may provide insights into the BOJ's subsequent policy decision on 24 January.
Meanwhile, verbal intervention by Japanese authorities may help limit the JPY's losses, with Japanese Finance Minister Katsunobu Kato noting on Friday that the official will take appropriate measures against excessive currency fluctuations.
Trade recommendation: We follow the level of 157.000, if it is fixed above we consider Buy positions, if it bounces back we consider Sell positions.
USD/JPY 4H Timeframe AnalysisUSD/JPY 4H Timeframe Analysis
Trend Analysis:
The USD/JPY pair is currently in an uptrend, although the price has displayed consolidation and manipulative moves at key levels. Initially, the price broke the minor key resistance at 157.200, indicating bullish strength. However, the price retraced below this level, breaking the minor support at 156.500, before rebounding and breaking the 157.200 resistance again.
After spending some time above 157.200, the price accumulated buying orders, forming multiple Doji candles, signaling indecision in the market. Subsequently, the price moved downward, hunting stop-loss orders placed by buyers, and broke the 156.500 support level, forming a double bottom structure. This pattern suggests a potential reversal as it indicates exhaustion in selling pressure and the likelihood of an upward move.
The price then reclaimed the 157.200 level, which has been invalidated multiple times but now acts as minor support. Observing the current uptrend, a consolidation near this support level typically signals a pause before a continuation of the bullish momentum.
Price Action Expectation:
Currently, the price is consolidating near the 157.200 minor support. Our objective is to wait for a short-term liquidity grab below this support level before the price resumes its upward momentum. A confirmed breakout above 157.440 will signal the continuation of the bullish trend.
Trade Setup:
Trade Type: Buy Stop
Entry Price: 157.440 (above the minor key resistance after a breakout)
Stop Loss: 156.120 (below the double bottom and liquidity grab zone)
Take Profit: 160.200 (next minor resistance level)
Fundamental Correlation:
The USD/JPY pair’s price movement aligns with upcoming Unemployment Claims data from the United States. The previous forecast was 219K, while the latest forecast is 222K. A higher-than-expected number could weaken the USD slightly, introducing temporary volatility. However, if the results align with or beat expectations, the USD could retain its bullish momentum, supporting the upward move in USD/JPY.
Conclusion:
The USD/JPY pair shows potential for continued bullish momentum after reclaiming key levels and forming a double bottom. Traders should monitor price action around 157.200 for signs of a liquidity grab and await confirmation of a breakout above 157.440 to initiate buy positions. Pay attention to the upcoming Unemployment Claims release as it may introduce volatility and impact trade execution.
Risk Management:
Ensure proper position sizing and maintain a favorable risk-to-reward ratio of 1:2 or better. Always adjust trades based on market developments and manage risks prudently.

Major Economic Events

+ January 3: U.S. December ISM Manufacturing PMI
USD/JPY Chart Analysis
With the Japanese stock market on holiday and the dollar showing strength, USD/JPY is also on an upward trend. Recently, the pair has consistently tested the 158 level.
If USD/JPY successfully breaks above the 158 level, a further rise toward the 160–161 range is expected. However, if the breakout attempt fails, the pair could retreat to around the 154 level.
While the overall outlook leans bullish, I will quickly revise my strategy should the market shift to a bearish trend.

USD/JPYUnderstanding where these levels are can help traders make better decisions about entry and exit points. If the price is approaching a strong resistance level, it might be a good opportunity to take profits or short sell, expecting the trend to reverse. Conversely, if the price approaches a support level, it might be a good buying opportunity, anticipating a bounce.
Incorporating support and resistance effectively into your trading strategy requires careful analysis of the market conditions, considering other factors like market sentiment, upcoming economic events, and overall trends.
