USDJPY trade ideas

USDJPYDate: July 22,2025 Session: Tokyo and London session Pair: USDJPY Bias: Long 1. Clean liquidity pool left unswept from last week's NYC Open (Thursday). Took this trade earlier today but looks like price wanted to consolidate in the liquid pool its currently in. I still hold the same idea and think the sweep will definitely take place sometime this week. Now looks like the perfect time to enter. If Asia session cant get it done its up to London and New York session. Entry:147.534 Stop Loss:147.215 Target:148.768 RR:3.89

USD/JPY probable move Target 1 waiting for confirmationWaiting for confirmation on candles and Real Volume 5min or 15min (power of Real Volume)-without real volume I am like a blind man in a dense forest :) Tools: - real volume (proper interpretation) - Fibonacci expansion ABC (an additional, new goal every day) - Fibonacci retracement (combined with the real volume, it shows me the real probable movement for the next hours and days) - volume support and resistance levels (confirmation of the price recovery level) - oversold/overbought index (focusing on 1H and 4H something is already overvalued or undervalued) - candlestick patterns (my entry point for 5 minutes or 15 minutes candlestick formations confirmed by particularly increasing volume).

Yen Holds Firm as Ishiba Stays in OfficeThe yen hovered around 147.5 per dollar on Tuesday, holding its 1% gain as markets digested Japan’s election outcome. Despite the ruling coalition losing its upper house majority, Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba is likely to stay in office, easing political concerns. Ishiba confirmed his continued involvement in US trade negotiations. Meanwhile, opposition parties are expected to advocate for fiscal stimulus and tax cuts, which could pressure the yen and push bond yields higher. Trade discussions with the US remain on schedule for the August 1 deadline. Resistance is at 147.75, with major support at 146.15.

Fundamental analysis: JPY strength and TV show recommendation The outcome of the Japanese election has created JPY strength. If you placed a short term JPY long based on the election, I would find it difficult to argue. But, personally, I think any JPY strength will be short lived. Essentially due to uncertainty creating a likelihood of a slower pace of BOJ rate hikes (If at all). Meaning, JPY short trades back on the table soon. Whilst I await a 4hr swing with a 'push up' on JPY charts (for a JPY short). I'd like to recommend a very interesting TV programme I recently watched called FINDING THE MONEY. Depending on your region you might be able to watch it for free., Living in the UK, I paid about £6 to watch it via Amazon prime. It won't necessarily make you a better trader, it's just a very interesting watch, particularly if you're curious about the concept of M.M.T and the workings of the financial system.

USD/JPY Analysis by zForex Research Team - 07.21.2025​Yen Recovers After Japan’s Upper House Election The Japanese yen rose to around 148.5 per dollar on Monday, recovering some of last week’s losses after the ruling coalition lost its upper house majority. Markets had mostly priced in the result, limiting the reaction. Prime Minister Ishiba is expected to remain in office, which could ease concerns over political instability. The opposition is likely to push for more spending and tax cuts, which could pressure the yen and lift bond yields. The election outcome comes as Tokyo continues trade talks with Washington. US Commerce Secretary Lutnick confirmed the August 1 tariff deadline but said negotiations will continue. For the yen, resistance stands at 149.30, followed by 151.50, with the next key level at 155.00. Support is located at 147.50, with further levels at 146.15 and 145.30.

Fundamental Market Analysis for July 21, 2025 USDJPYThe pair opened the week near 148.500, clawing back ground after Sunday’s upper‑house election saw Japan’s ruling LDP‑Komeito coalition lose its majority. The outcome clouds the fiscal outlook and raises the probability of additional stimulus, a combination that tends to undermine the yen as investors anticipate higher public borrowing and a looser policy mix. At the same time, subdued inflation and stagnant real wages have pushed expectations of Bank of Japan tightening into late‑2025 at the earliest. With the 10‑year US‑Japan yield gap hovering near yearly highs, capital continues to flow from low‑yielding JGBs into higher‑yielding US assets, reinforcing dollar demand against the yen. Dollar strength is also underpinned by persistent tariff worries and a Federal Reserve that maintains a cautious stance rather than rushing to cut rates. Given these fundamentals, USDJPY could retest the psychological 150.000 barrier, while dips below 147.500 are likely to be viewed by the market as opportunities to re‑establish long positions rather than the start of a deeper correction. Trading recommendation: BUY 148.500, SL 147.500, TP 149.500

USDJPY 4Hour TF - July 20th,2025USDJPY 7/20/2025 USDJPY 4Hour Neutral Idea Monthly - Bullish Weekly - Bearish Daily - Bullish 4Hour - Bullish UJ is looking better than a couple weeks ago and at least we can spot some decent setups for the week ahead. These are NOT perfect setups but we have two scenarios that we are ready for if price action shows it is ready too. Here are the two scenarios we’re looking at for the week: Bullish Continuation - We can see UJ in a nice 4hour channel but we are currently seeing a bit of flat price action. For us to consider UJ long setups again we would need to be convinced. Look for a break above our 149.250 zone with a confirmed higher low above. This would be enough to consider longs and target higher toward key levels of resistance. Bearish Reversal - If price action continues to stall, this bearish setup will become more and more likely. Ideally, we want to see some strong rejection from our 149.250. If this happens look to target lower toward 147.500.

USD/JPY FORCAST🟦 Time Structure Analysis – USD/JPY | The 3-6-9 Temporal Cycle 📌 Price can lie. But time never does. While many traders rely on price action or Elliott Wave counts, I take a different route — I trade time. Why? Because time sets the rhythm, and the rhythm defines everything. 🔄 The 3-6-9 Time Cycle Every complete market movement follows a hidden structure based on natural timing laws In the current month, July 2 was the entry gate. That’s where I anchor the beginning of the new cycle. ⏳ Why Time Wins Over Price Indicators lag Price patterns repaint But time never repaints. Once the temporal cycle is locked in, it dictates future market rhythm. You can identify where the market must move next — not by guessing the price level, but by counting time bars from a known pivot. --- ⚡ Strategy in Practice In my system, I use: ✅ Cycle Lines starting from key reversal points ✅ Fixed monthly gates as temporal anchors ✅ Bar counting based on 3-6-9 geometry ✅ Fractal validation from higher timeframes This gives me a predictive edge based on time pressure, not price patterns. 🎯 “The market doesn’t move because of buyers and sellers... It moves because of time.” Time is the structure. Price is just the effect.
