Dollar to Weaken Against Yen Over Next 6 MonthsUSD/JPY is showing signs of a potential downtrend after failing to break above key resistance at 152.00. The pair has formed a double-top pattern on the weekly chart, with RSI divergence signaling weakening bullish momentum. A break below 150.00 could accelerate losses toward 145.00 (200-day MA) and possibly 140.00 over the next 6 months.
The US dollar may weaken as the Fed is expected to start cutting rates in late 2024/early 2025, while the BoJ could cautiously tighten policy if wage growth persists. Narrowing US-Japan yield differentials (10-year yields) would reduce JPY carry-trade appeal, supporting yen strength. MoF’s verbal warnings and past interventions near 152.00 suggest strong resistance to further yen weakness.

USDJPY trade ideas
SYMMETRICAL TRIANGLEGood morning and good afternoon traders, wherever you're dialed in from.
Hope y’all are stacking those pips this week — whether you’re trend-riding, countering swings, or just sitting back letting setups come to you. 🔍
We’ve been hitting precise targets lately, and the tape’s been speaking loud and clear. Doesn’t matter what the sentiment says — we follow price, we follow structure.
Right now, we’ve got a clean symmetrical triangle unfolding on USDJPY (4H). Marked up from point a to e, with that little fakeout dip at E (147.084) acting like a trap for the impatient. Textbook spring behavior.
What catches my eye is the way price is coiling tight between the triangle’s ceiling and rising floor. We’re hovering just under 147.80, and a decisive push through that ceiling could unlock a sharp move toward the 150.50 zone (symmetrical projection).
If you missed the earlier leg, don’t chase — let price show you real intent. A confirmed breakout above 148.00 is the trigger. If we break back below 146.90, reassess.
No need to guess — we observe, we react. Let the market come to us.
“We don’t force trades. We trade when the market invites us.”

USDJPY / U.S. Dollar – Japanese Yen (1D + 1H) – Multi-Timeframe USDJPY / U.S. Dollar – Japanese Yen (1D + 1H) – Multi-Timeframe Breakdown
Hello awesome traders! 👋
Closing the week with a full top-down look at USDJPY. We’ve got a macro bullish setup developing, but Friday gave us a well-structured intraday bearish opportunity worth studying. Let’s walk through the levels across the timeframes:
🧭 Macro Structure (Daily / 4H)
We start with a textbook Cypher formation on the macro frame, overlapping with a broad ABC bullish correction:
🔹 XA and BC legs are clean and proportionate
🔹 The D point completes just above the 78.6% XA zone
🔹 ABC structure suggests price may be completing a corrective leg within the larger bullish swing
🔍 Medium-Term Focus (4H): Zoom Into the ABC
As we zoom into the ABC leg:
🔸 A = 146.82
🔸 B = 149.08
🔸 C forms near 148.20 with shallow retracement
🔸 Completion shows signs of exhaustion
The ABC pullback aligns with prior resistance and fib confluence zones.
⏱ Intraday Breakdown (1H): Symmetry, Traps, and False Breakouts
This is where the intraday bearish case built up:
🔻 1. Symmetrical Triangle Breakdown
Price formed a clear compression triangle → broke lower → retested → failed again.
🔻 2. Double Top Structure + Cypher Trap
We had a false breakout above 149.08, followed by a rejection. This matches the Cypher reversal zone and classic trap behavior.
🎯 Friday Outlook
✅ Bias: Bearish
📍 Target 1: 38.2% = 148.21
📍 Target 2: 61.8–78.6% = 147.67 – 147.29
We're looking for price to rotate back into these fib support zones before macro structure takes back control. No bullish commitment unless we reclaim the 149.08 highs with strength.
🛡 Risk Management Note
This is short-term momentum inside a larger bullish frame. Treat intraday shorts with tight stops. Macro buyers may step in at the fib wall.
🗝 Final Thoughts
This is the perfect example of why multi-timeframe context matters.
Macro is prepping for a possible long-term continuation, but Friday’s lower timeframe offered an opportunistic short from structure, symmetry, and failed breakout traps.
“The market breathes in waves — one time frame exhales while the other prepares to inhale.”
USDJPY Technical Analysis – Key Support Zone in Focus!USDJPY Technical Analysis – Key Support Zone in Focus!
As shown in the chart, USDJPY has broken out of its long-term trendline and is now trading within a rising channel structure. Currently, the price is sitting near a crucial support zone at 145.190, which could play a decisive role in the pair’s next move.
🔹 If this support holds, we may see a bullish continuation towards the following key resistance levels:
First target: 151.110
Next target: 160.100 (upper bound of the channel)
🔻 However, if the 145.190 support fails, the price could decline toward the bottom of the rising channel, with the next major support near:
136.000
📌 This area is critical for swing and position traders. Price action in this zone will likely provide strong signals for entry or exit.

USD/JPY – Bearish Rejection After Channel BreakUSD/JPY – Bearish Rejection After Channel Break
🔹 2H Chart Analysis by PULSETRADESFX
USD/JPY has broken down from a rising channel and is now rejecting a key supply zone around 147.000 – 147.250. The pair is showing early signs of bearish continuation after retesting this zone as resistance.
This setup favors short positions targeting deeper levels, especially with price failing to reclaim the broken structure.
📌 Trade Setup:
Entry: 146.808
Stop Loss: 147.350 (Above supply zone)
TP1: 146.000 (Recent low)
TP2: 145.250 (Demand support)
TP3: 144.300 (Major structural zone)
This is a clean break–retest–continuation scenario with risk-to-reward aligning well for short-term and swing traders.
✅ Bearish Confluences:
Rising channel break
Supply zone rejection
Lower high structure
Bearish engulfing reaction

USDJPY Correction Complete, Is the Bullish Trend Back in play?After pulling back from the recent high near 149.17, USDJPY has shown signs of strength again, rebounding off the confluence support at the ascending trendline. The bullish narrative is supported by a hawkish FOMC tone and news that a U.S. federal court temporarily blocked Trump-era tariffs. The pair now awaits upcoming U.S. economic data for further directional clarity.
🔍 Technical Outlook – Structure & Momentum
✅ Primary trend: Bullish
✅ Correction phase: Completed near CP zone and trendline
✅ Key structural areas: FVG Zone, CP Zone, and trendline remain intact
Price has responded positively from the CP Zone + OBS Buy Zone around 147.438, aligning with the uptrend line. As long as this structure holds, buyers may push the market toward the next resistance zones.
🧭 Trade Scenarios
🔸 Bullish Bias (preferred scenario):
As long as price holds above 147.438, we expect continuation toward the FVG zone, with immediate targets at the GAP + OBS Sell Zone (148.703) and extended potential to the Buy-side Liquidity zone at 149.122.
A clean breakout above 149.122 opens the door to Fibonacci extensions: 149.72 and 150.05.
🔹 Bearish Scenario (if invalidated):
If price breaks below 147.438 and loses the trendline, we may see a deeper drop toward the Liquidity Buy Zone at 146.825, where strong buying interest is expected to re-enter the market.
⚠️ Macro Risk Drivers
Hawkish FOMC minutes continue to support USD strength
Paused trade tariffs reduce political headwinds, improving risk sentiment
Upcoming U.S. economic data could trigger sharp intraday moves → watch closely
📌 Key Price Zones
Liquidity Buy Zone 146.825 Major long re-entry zone
CP + OBS Buy Zone 147.438 Current active support
FVG Zone 148.20 – 148.68 Intraday bullish target
GAP + OBS Sell Zone 148.703 Short-term resistance
Buy-side Liquidity Zone 149.122 Final bullish objective
💬 Structure remains bullish unless the trendline breaks. Stay patient, wait for confirmations at key zones, and follow your plan with disciplined risk management.
Bullish bounce off major support?USD/JPY is falling towards the pivot, which acts as an overlap support and could bounce to the 1st resistance, which is a swing high resistance.
Pivot: 145.96
1st Support: 144.98
1st Resistance: 149.18

USD/JPY PROBABLY !Waiting 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).
Retracement then bearsish.Waitn for my setup, potential hns, retrace to the area of my interest. And down down.

USDJPY| - Bullish Setup Loading30M price action remains heavy to the upside. Structure is intact — no lows invalidated. Currently sitting on a refined 30M order block, I’m patiently watching for price to dip back into the zone and sweep short-term liquidity (SSL).
Once that sweep happens and we pull back into the OB, I’ll be looking to ride the bullish momentum:
🎯 First target: 5M highs
🚀 Final target: 30M highs
Feeling confident — just waiting on smart money to confirm it’s time.
USDJPY Will Go Lower From Resistance! Sell!
Please, check our technical outlook for USDJPY.
Time Frame: 45m
Current Trend: Bearish
Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI)
Forecast: Bearish
The market is approaching a significant resistance area 145.971.
Due to the fact that we see a positive bearish reaction from the underlined area, I strongly believe that sellers will manage to push the price all the way down to 145.357 level.
P.S
Overbought describes a period of time where there has been a significant and consistent upward move in price over a period of time without much pullback.
