Buy GBPYJPY Entry: 168.18 Stop loss: 167.92 Take profit: 169.90
After strong gains last week, the Japanese yen has extended its gains on Monday. USD/JPY is trading at 138.23 in the European session, down 0.67%. China has applied its Covid-zero policy with a heavy hand, but Covid cases continue to rise nonetheless. The mass lockdowns have triggered widespread protests, which some injuries reported. The unrest is likely to...
The Japanese yen has edged higher on Friday and is trading at 139.90 in the European session. Inflation continues to creep up in Japan. Core CPI accelerated to 3.6% in October, up from 3.0% in September and edging above the consensus of 3.5%. These levels pale in comparison to what we're seeing in the US, the UK and elsewhere, but Japan hasn't seen these levels...
$USDJPY has a new trend continuation signal here, weekly and daily trends are bullish, as well as monthly, quarterly and even yearly. Energy and bonds suggest we will see rising yields for longer, FX looks like the dollar has ample reasons to remain bid and the BOJ and ECB are the weakest central banks here, relatively vs the Fed's policy stance, as well as from a...
Hello traders. I see a poin of interest here. Fundamentally speaking, Bank of Japan has initiated the intervention in order to mitigate the Yen 's depreciation. Technically speaking we are inside weekly supply zone which is not checked as support up to today. I see an M pattern forming in daily time frame. I see two potential entries. One immediate entry and...
The Japanese yen is taking a breather after posting huge gains on Thursday. In the European session, USD/JPY is trading at 140.30, down 0.45%. The week wrapped up with a key inflation release. Japan's Producer Price Index slowed to 9.1% in October, down from 10.2% in September. Still, this was above the consensus of 8.8%. Consumer inflation is running around 3%,...
Hello traders. GBPJPY has performed a quite bullish price action. But the market makers' game is usually trapping the retailers on Mondays and reverse the trend later during week. So, I am sceptical. The pair definitely needs corrections and that is not only an opinion of mine. It is overbought so many big players will close their profits pretty soon. However,...
The USDJPY fell slightly overnight but continues to trade along the support area of 146.70. As the price consolidates but fails to trade lower from this support level, look for a recovery in the strength of the DXY, which could cause the USDJPY to rebound higher, toward the interim resistance 148 to 149 price area. However, if the price breaks below 146.00, the...
USD/JPY has posted strong gains today. In the European session, the yen is trading at 147.42, up 0.78%. All eyes were on the Bank of Japan, which wrapped up a crucial 2-day policy meeting on Friday. The meeting came just days after Japan's Ministry of Finance (MOF) intervened in the currency markets after the yen had fallen close to the 152 line, a new 32-year...

YES! The BoJ is expected to release its monetary policy report today, and all signs point to the BoJ maintaining its current stance. Keeping with the negative rates of -0.1%. The BoJ is the last major central bank yet to jump onto the interest rate hike path, diverging from the rest of the world. Releasing an unchanged monetary policy report at the last BoJ...
On Friday 21st October, the USDJPY had been climbing steadily, almost reaching the round number of 152.00. Then it reversed and spiked lower, from 151.50 reaching a low of 146.20. This move was very similar to what happened on the 22nd of September, when the USDJPY climbed above 145 and almost reached 146 before crashing down to 140.35. However, when the USDJPY...
Hello traders, As it comes to CADJPY, I see that after the positive CAD news on Friday, this pair has been sold hard. I see a break of Trend line and support zone and I can see a Friday closure at retest price action. Perhaps the pair might go up for a bit, but this will indicate nice short opportunities to the previous support zones. Note: The Bank of Japan...
A brief skim over the markets before Fed week next week. Much of the same really ... Let's see if the dollar can hold on.
The Yen is weak... The weakest against the dollar I have ever experienced in my trading career... Economically though, Japan is not in the worst situation, especially when compared to key economic figures... Current global inflation rates; US 8.2%, UK 10.1%, EU 9.9%, AUS 6.1%, CAD 6.9%... Japan 3.0% GDP growth; US -0.6% (recession), UK 0.2%, EU 0.8%, CAD...
The Japanese yen is sharply lower today, as USD/JPY has climbed 1.2% and is trading at 149.41 in Europe. The yen continues to exhibit strong swings for a second straight session. The yen started the week with sharp gains and jumped to 145.28, but the dollar has recovered and pushed the yen back above 149. This is a repeat of the whipshaw we saw on Friday, when...
Last idea " has usdjpy gone ballistic already " was based on a 1 month timeframe trend. The chart is consistent, BoJ intervention did not change the trend so far. Let's wait for month close, though. On a shorter TF like 1W, 1D we can see BoJ intervention pushed USDJPY a little away from my ballistic trendline for a few trading hours; now it is back in...
Markets finished last week in volatile fashion after a drop on USDJPY on speculation of BOJ intervention, which also had an impact on other markets. This JPY volatility has resumed today with another back and forht moves with 400 pips on USDJPY following Japan’s top currency diplomat Masato Kanda comments from clarifying whether they intervened in the market but...
