BOJ interest rateBOJ interest rate decision tonight. 1/23/25 10pmEST cons = .5% prev = .25% 7/30/24 act = .25% prev = .10% 3/18/24 act = .10% prev = -10% USD/JPY longer time frame 100 & 200 moving averages trajectory has moderated from a steep upward slope to a relatively neutral slope, ever since BOJ .25% interest rate decision in July. The faster time frame 20 & 50 moving averages appear to be oscillating above and below the fib50 of the past year high and low. I see this as a good short USD/JPY entry as the BOJ continues to raise interest rates to stabilize the Yen value, and the FOMC rates are going down. Trade idea: short = 157.08 stop = 158.88 profit = 150.77 20sma = 157.08 50sma = 154.83 100sma = 151.24 200sma = 152.79 1yrhigh = 161.95 fib50 = 150.77 1yrlow = 139.58

Bank of Japan expected to raise rates, yen calmThe Japanese yen is slightly lower on Thursday. In the European session, USD/JPY is trading at 156.25, down 0.16% on the day. All eyes are on the Bank of Japan, which meets early on Friday. The BoJ is expected to raise interest rates by 25 basis points which would bring the cash rate to 0.50%. The BoJ has said that it will raise rates if it sees higher wage growth, which would indicate that inflation is sustainable. BoJ policymakers have expressed confidence that wages are moving higher and Deputy Governor Himino said last week that many firms plan to raise wages at least as much as last year. Investors will be keeping a close eye on the BoJ's rate statement. The tone of the statement could be dovish as BoJ policymakers are concerned about President Donald Trump's threats to levy trade tariffs as early as Feb. 1, a move which could destabilize the financial markets. The BoJ will have to be cautious as it gauges the 'Trump factor". Another factor supporting a rate hike is the poor performance of the Japanese yen, which has declined around 9% in the past three months. The Federal Reserve is sounding more hawkish and might raise rates only once or twice this year. If the BoJ stays on the sidelines again, the yen could fall further. Overshadowed by the BoJ meeting, Japan releases December core CPI. Japan's core inflation rate has been climbing higher and is expected to climb to 3% y/y, up from 2.7% in November which was a three-month high. The core rate, which is closely watched by the BOJ, has hovered above the central bank's target of 2% for over two years. USD/JPY is testing support at 156.20. Below, there is support at 155.68 157.04 and 157.56 are the next resistance lines

USD/JPYThe "cup and handle" is a chart pattern often observed in technical analysis, typically used by traders to identify potential bullish setups in a stock, cryptocurrency, or other financial instruments. Here's a quick overview of how it works: Shape and Formation Cup: The chart shows a rounded "U" shape that resembles a teacup. This indicates a period of consolidation after a price decline, followed by a gradual recovery to the previous high. Handle: After the cup forms, a small downward or sideways movement occurs, resembling a handle. This is often seen as a minor pullback or consolidation before a potential breakout.

Fundamental Market Analysis for January 23, 2025 USDJPYThe Japanese yen (JPY) rose during the Asian session on Thursday following the release of better-than-expected Japanese trade balance data, although it remains close to a one-week low against its US counterpart from the previous day.The Bank of Japan (BoJ) is expected to raise interest rates imminently, a prospect which continues to support the yen. Additionally, the Federal Reserve's (Fed) anticipated interest rate cuts this year are a factor in the subdued US Dollar (USD) price action, which is limiting the USD/JPY pair's recovery from a more than one-month low reached on Tuesday. Nevertheless, JPY bulls seem reluctant to take a risk and prefer to adopt a wait-and-see approach ahead of the crucial two-day Bank of Japan meeting that starts this Thursday. Concerns over US President Donald Trump's tariff plans and risk-on sentiment may also deter further yen appreciation, but the diverging policy expectations of the BoJ and Fed require some caution before confirming that the USD/JPY pair has formed a short-term bottom.Traders now await Trump's speech at the World Economic Forum to build momentum ahead of the expected BoJ decision on Friday. Trade recommendation: Watching the level of 156.500, trading mainly with Buy orders
