USDJPY

USDJPY lures buyers ahead of Japan GDP, US inflationUSDJPY snapped a three-week uptrend as traders await Japan's Q4 GDP and the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) with mild losses by the end of Friday. While a U-turn from the 50-DMA played a major role in calling bears, the bulls aren’t off the table as the pair remains beyond the previous resistance line from late November, around 129.00. Even if the pair breaks the resistance-turned-support line, January’s bottom around 127.20 and May 2022 low near 126.35 will be crucial for the pair sellers to conquer before taking control. It’s worth noting that the RSI appears mostly steady and favors the trend line break out. Alternatively, the 50-DMA surrounding 132.30 appears immediate hurdle to restrict the immediate USDJPY upside. Following that, January’s peak near 134.80 and the 200-DMA near 136.80 could act as additional challenges for the bulls to cross before approaching the driver’s seat. It should be observed that the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the pair’s May-October 2022 upside, around 139.10, precedes the 140.00 round figure to act as the last defense of the pair bears. Overall, USDJPY bears are less convinced ahead of the key data/events.

USDJPY is ready to refresh multi-month lowEven if the USDJPY pair posted the biggest weekly gains in seven in the last, it remains inside a bearish channel. Additionally keeping the Yen pair sellers hopeful is the quote’s repeated failures to cross the 100-SMA. That said, the quote currently drops towards a one-week-old support line, close to 128.00. However, the May 2022 low will join the lower line of a five-week-old descending trend channel, near 126.35-30, to pose as a tough nut to crack for the bears. In a case where the pair remains bearish past 126.30, the odds of witnessing a slump toward the 120.00 psychological magnet can’t be ruled out. Alternatively, USDJPY can witness short-term buying in case of a successful upside break of the 100-SMA, close to 130.75. Following that, the top line of the stated bearish channel, around 132.50, will be important for the Yen pair buyers to watch. It should be noted that the 200-SMA level surrounding 132.85 and the 133.00 round figure act as additional upside filters before giving control to the bulls. Hence, USDJPY bears are in the driver’s seat even if the 126.35-30 support confluence challenges further downside.

USDJPY Key Level Support@ 128.82Dollar remains unloved; sterling drops on weak retail sales Investing.com - The U.S. dollar edged lower in early European trade Friday, remaining around seven-month lows amid concerns of a U.S. economic slowdown, while sterling retreated after weak retail sales data. At 03:15 ET (08:15 GMT), the Dollar Index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six other currencies, edged 0.1% lower at 101.750, just above the seven-month low of 101.51 seen on Wednesday. The index is down 1.3% this year after sharp losses in the last quarter of 2022 as investors bet that the Federal Reserve will slow the pace of its interest rate rises amid signs inflation has peaked. At the same time, U.S. data this week have suggested the world's biggest economy was slowing, with retail sales dropping 1.1% on the month in December, industrial production falling 0.7%, and manufacturing production down 1.3%. “This is the third consecutive month of contraction in industrial activity with output declines looking broad-based,” analysts at ING said, in a note. “Coming on the back of the weakness in retail sales, the steep drop in industrial production and news of more job lay-offs adds to fears the U.S. could already be in recession.” Elsewhere, GBP/USD fell 0.1% to 1.2372 after U.K. retail sales unexpectedly fell in December, dropping by 1%, much weaker than the predicted 0.5% monthly rise. "Retail sales dropped again in December with feedback suggesting consumers cut back on their Christmas shopping due to affordability concerns," Heather Bovill, the Office of National Statistics' deputy director for surveys and economic indicators, said. EUR/USD rose 0.2% to 1.0850, trading around levels not seen since early April 2022, after European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde warned, at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland on Thursday, that inflation figures remained "way too high", reiterating the need for aggressive monetary policy decisions. USD/JPY rose 0.3% to 128.81 after Japan's core consumer prices rose 4.0% in December from a year earlier, double the central bank's 2% target. Trading in the yen has been volatile of late amid expectations that the BOJ will soon end its ultra-easy monetary policy in the near future.

USDJPY bears keep driver’s seat despite BoJ-led rallyDespite rising nearly 300 pips following the Bank of Japan’s (BoJ) inaction, the USDJPY pair remains on the bear’s radar as it is yet to cross a four-month-long descending trend line resistance, around 131.10-15 by the press time. That said, the RSI’s rebound from the conditions also intraday buyers. It’s worth noting that the 50-DMA pierces the 200-DMA from above and portrays a bear cross on the daily chart, which in turn suggests the quote’s further downside unless the pair rises past the 200-DMA hurdle surrounding 136.65. Alternatively, lows marked during May 2022 surrounding 126.35 precede the 125.00 threshold to challenge USDJPY bears, not to forget the oversold RSI conditions. In a case where the pair bears ignore RSI conditions and dominate past 125.00, the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level and the late March low, respectively around 122.45 and 121.30, could act as the last defenses of the buyers before directing them to the February 2022 bottom of 114.40. Overall, the bear cross on the daily chart contrasts the BoJ’s inaction and keeps sellers hopeful.

Approach towards USDJPY Long.Hello Traders! It's a simple trade today. Very basic . Sometimes we tend to complicate the market when all it needs is simplification. 1. Falling wedge pattern with trend respected. 2. A comfirmation in 30 min tf (W pattern) and 2hr tf ( indecision candle and then a bullish reversal candle). 3. But still, as a precautionary measure, we'll wait for the the current high to be broken. Better safe than sorry! Do use proper risk management. Happy Trading! Profits, Market's Mechanic.
