USDJPY | MT Short H4 | Riding on BOJ Intervention

Pair: USDJPY
Timeframe: H4 - Medium Term (MT)
Direction: Short

Technical Confluences for Trade:
- Stochastics are in Overbought Conditions on D1, H4 and H1 time-frames
- Price action may face some resistance from a previous support line
- Price is close to 61.8% Fib Extension Level
- Aiming for the 32.8% Fibo Retracement with 23.6% as the TP 1 level

Fundamental Confluences for Trade:
- Dividend repatriation season for Japan where MNCs bring back USD dividends and converts them to JPY
- These levels may see BOJ intervening to stop the Yen weakness
- Yield differential between USA and Japan cannot be denied and dovish BOJ doesn't help much; hence the weak JPY unless we see a firmer BOJ
- Further war escalation from the Israel-Iran tension may bring on risk-off moves and see the JPY strengthen

Suggested Trade:
Entry @ Area of Interest 154.00 - 155.15
SL @ 156.56
TP 1 @ 151.30 (Close Half-Position & move SL to Entry level once TP1 is achieved)
TP 2 @ 149.27
Risk-to-Reward @ Approx. 3.03 (Depending on Entry Level)


May the pips move in our favor! Good luck! :D
