JPYUSD trade ideas
Trade news gradually improves - Supporting USD to rise again🔔🔔🔔 USD/JPY news:
➡️ The USD/JPY pair extended its gains to approach the 144.00 level early Friday, driven by renewed demand for the U.S. dollar following a Bloomberg report suggesting that China is considering suspending the 125% tariff on certain U.S. imports. The pair largely ignored Tokyo’s hotter-than-expected CPI inflation data.
Personal opinion:
➡️ USD/JPY continues to rise thanks to positive news from the Trump administration’s negotiations with Asian countries. Although good Japanese economic data supports the JPY, the focus is still on the active trade war and it supports the USD
➡️ Analysis based on important resistance - support and Fibonacci levels combined with EMA to come up with a suitable strategy
Personal plan:
🔆Price Zone Setup:
👉Buy USD/JPY 143.00 - 144.40
❌SL: 142.50 | ✅TP: 143.80 - 144.40
FM wishes you a successful trading day 💰💰💰
BOJ Faces Inflation ChallengeThe Japanese yen weakened to around 143 per dollar on Friday, reversing Thursday’s gains as the U.S. dollar rebounded on easing global trade tensions. President Trump reassured markets that U.S.-China trade talks are ongoing, despite China’s denial, and optimism over talks with Japan and South Korea also supported the dollar. Trump also eased monetary policy concerns by clarifying he never intended to remove Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
In Japan, Tokyo’s core inflation rose to 3.4% in April, the highest in two years, posing a challenge for the Bank of Japan as it balances rising inflation with external risks from U.S. tariffs. The BOJ is expected to keep rates steady.
Key resistance is at 144.00, with further levels at 145.90 and 146.75. Support stands at 139.70, followed by 137.00 and 135.00.
USDJPY COT and Liquidity AnalysisCOT Report Analysis:
Consolidatin followed by 3 weeks sell of with the net shorts being added. Price still didn't reach liquidity so in my opinion we have still bearish smart money sentiment. So we got framework and bias now we need to look for setups. Which I will again use my CLS method.

Hey what up traders welcome to the COT data and Liquidity report. This is a big part of my FX Trading. Im always trying to trade with the Big players so knowing their positions is good thing.
Please be aware that institutions report data to the SEC on Tuesdays and data are reported on Fridays - so again we as retail traders have disadvantage, but there is possibility to read between the lines. Remember in the report is what they want you to see, that's why mostly price reverse on Wednesday after the report so their cards are hidden as long as possible. However if the trend is running you can read it and use for your advantage.
I created this simple free indicator which you can find in the my scripts. It's highlighting the day of the real report - Tuesday.
Here is the tip if the level has confluence with the high volume on COT it can be strong support / Resistance.

USDJPY – Searching for a Bottom After a Brutal DropSince the start of the year, USDJPY has been in an almost free fall, losing nearly 2,000 pips and breaking multiple key supports, including the critical 150 level.
Yesterday, we even saw a spike below 140, a level not touched for quite some time.
🔄 However, after that spike, the pair reversed sharply to the upside, showing strong demand in that area.
Interestingly, this zone was tested at the start of 2024 and again back in September, adding even more technical relevance.
📊 Despite the poor outlook for the USD overall, I now expect a meaningful rebound from here, aiming for a retest of the former 146 support, which has now turned into resistance.
💡 Trading Plan:
I will be looking to buy dips near the current support, targeting a 1:3 Risk/Reward setup toward the 146 resistance area.

USDJPY On The Verge Of A CollapseA simple trade setup with good risk/reward but with huge economic implications should this structure CRACK!
With all H&S patterns, the risk is that it head tests before breaking down.
We've seen this play out recently in NFLX
That is why it is important to wait for the CRACK! And not front-run the trade.
USDJPY Analysis 4H Time-frame Let’s break down the analysis in detail:
---
1. Key Zones & Market Structure
You've identified important supply and demand zones:
Supply Zone (around 158.886):
Price hit this zone and sharply reversed. You've marked it with a yellow box, showing a strong area of sellers.
This is a major resistance zone that was tested twice, forming a possible double top structure.
Demand Zone (around 139.694 - 139.576):
This level previously acted as a strong support.
Price reacted here again, which might indicate bullish interest. You marked this zone well with a yellow box.
---
2. Market Reaction & Rejection Points
In the second image, you circled:
Major highs and lows, showing previous price reactions.
These marks point out liquidity zones—areas where price likely took out stop-losses before reversing.
---
3. Price Action Narrative
Here’s the likely narrative from your analysis:
Uptrend into Supply Zone (158.886) → Rejection → Strong bearish move.
Price finds support in Demand Zone (139.694) → Rejection wick → Signs of a bullish reversal.
Current Price (around 142.9) is pushing back into a potential minor resistance (possibly a breaker or previous support turned resistance around 143–145 zone).
---
4. Timeframes Used
You're using both daily (1D) and 4-hour (4H) timeframes.
The 4H chart helps you zoom into entry confirmations (e.g., rejections, liquidity grabs), while the 1D gives you overall structure and key zones.
---
5. Trade Opportunity Analysis
Based on this, a typical analysis conclusion could be:
> “The price of USD/JPY has reached a significant daily demand zone (around 139.7) where historical price action shows strong buying interest. Price has formed a potential higher low and is showing bullish signs, including a strong rejection wick and a recovery back above minor resistance. If price breaks and holds above the 143–145 zone, the next target could be the mid-resistance at 154.793, and eventually retest the supply zone around 158.886, depending on macro conditions and momentum.”
