USDJPY Hope everyone is having a great weekend, on a short term play will look for this setup, Note we are still long term short which i will share after this. This strategy is my 3 day rule (algo Day) which i will just follow trend.
Trend: The overall trend appears to be bullish, though there has been significant volatility and periods of pullbacks throughout 2024.
Resistance Levels: The pair faced resistance around the 160.00 mark in July, from which a substantial downtrend followed.
Support Levels: The 142.50 level acted as a strong support zone during the August-September decline.
Current Price: The pair is currently trading around 149.45, rebounding from the previous low of 142.50 in early October.
Technical Indicators: Recent Pullback: After a significant drop from the 160.00 level in July to 142.50 in August-September, the USD/JPY has been on a recovery trend.
Fibonacci Retracement: The price has retraced to the 149.50 zone, which aligns with the 50% Fibonacci retracement level from the June high to the September low. This could act as a critical level for bulls and bears in the short term.
Momentum: The recent upward momentum looks strong, though the 150.00 mark may act as psychological resistance.
Moving Averages: If the chart were overlaid with moving averages, we might expect the 50-day moving average to be providing some support, while the 100-day or 200-day moving averages might still suggest the pair is in an upward long-term trend. Future Outlook:
Bullish Scenario: If the pair manages to break through the 150.00 level, we could see a move back toward the 155.00 resistance zone. This area saw consolidation and price rejection during June. A break above 155.00 could see the USD/JPY targeting the previous highs near 160.00.
Bearish Scenario: If the pair fails to break the 150.00 psychological resistance, it may retest the 145.00-147.00 support zone. Breaking below this could bring the 142.50 level back into focus.
Conclusion: The USD/JPY is currently in a key resistance zone near 149.50-150.00. A breakout above this level could spark further bullish momentum toward the 155.00 region. However, failure to break this level might lead to another downward correction, with 145.00-147.00 acting as key support. Traders should keep an eye on the next few sessions for confirmation of a breakout or a reversal.
