USDJPY - 04.08.2026What I had been waiting for has happened. Shorts on the pair have been closed.
USD/JPY (dollar/yen): key news for August 3–4, 2026.
The pair fell sharply after a joint intervention by Japan and the United States — the first in many years (by different estimates, since either 2011 or 1998). The exchange rate dropped from multi-year highs around 163–164 (the weakest yen levels since 1986) to roughly the 155.5 area.

USDJPY — Bearish Breakdown Failed to Gain Follow-ThroughUSDJPY successfully broke below its ascending channel, initially signaling the possibility of a bearish continuation. However, the downside move has so far been rejected around the 156.591–156.848 support zone.
This area is proving to be a significant technical support and is not an easy level for sellers to break.
1H Timeframe — Key Support Holding
The current market structure shows that the initial channel breakdown has not yet developed into a confirmed bearish trend.
The key support zone
USDJPY - Technical Analysis
If the price manages to hold above 156.80, it is expected to retest that zone, with our targets set at 157.50 and subsequently 157.80.
However, if the price continues its downward movement and consolidates below 156.80, our bearish targets will be 156.40 and 156.00.
Resistance Levels: 157.50 – 157.80
Support Levels: 156.40 – 156.00
USDJPY - Technical Analysis
Following stabilization above the pivot level, the pair surged by 90+ pips ✅, successfully reaching the target resistance level highlighted in our previous analysis.
Currently, the bullish momentum continues toward the resistance target at 159.20. A breakout above this level will drive the price further toward 159.80.
Conversely, if the price breaks below 158.37 and holds with a confirmed 1-hour candle close below the pivot level, the trend will shift downward toward 157.85 and subsequently 1
USDJPY - Technical Analysis
Holding above the 153.55 level signals bullish momentum toward the resistance level at 155.30. A breakout above this resistance line will drive the price further toward 160.00.
However, if the price breaks below 153.55 and holds with a confirmed 1-hour candle close beneath this pivot level, the trend will shift downward toward the support targets at 152.90 and subsequently 152.00.
Resistance Levels: 155.30 – 156.00
Support Levels: 152.90 – 152.00
USDJPY | Breakout Retest & Bullish Continuation ScenarioUSDJPY has recovered strongly from the major demand zone around 156.00 - 156.20, establishing a sequence of higher highs and higher lows. Price is now retesting a key breakout area near 157.30 - 157.45, which aligns with previous resistance turning into potential support.
The current structure suggests buyers remain in control while price holds above the highlighted entry zone. A successful retest could provide the foundation for another leg higher toward the marked resistance levels.
📍 Entry
USD/JPY — Bullish Technical OutlookUSD/JPY remains within a right-angled and ascending broadening formation, maintaining a broader upward structural bias. Within this larger formation, price has developed a descending channel, representing the current corrective structure.
Price has recently declined toward the 153.045 support level, which also sits close to the lower boundary of the broader ascending structure. This area is therefore a critical technical support zone for the bullish setup.
As long as 153.045 holds and continue

Market Context
The US Dollar is in a mild recovery phase after a sharp August selloff, currently holding just below a major resistance zone. Japanese Yen remains sensitive to risk sentiment and any BOJ policy signals. The broader macro backdrop supports a short-term USD recovery, but the larger trend still favors JPY strength, making this a counter-trend bounce trade that requires disciplined risk management.

USDJPY: Yen Strength Blocks A Clean Dollar ReboundUSDJPY is trading near 156.00 after a sharp drop from the 160.00 area. The pair tried to stabilize, but the recovery remains weak.
Mixed macro picture : the yen is heading for its best week in a month, while the dollar remains firm ahead of U.S. payrolls. This means USDJPY is caught between two forces: stronger yen sentiment from Bank of Japan expectations and dollar support from U.S. labor-market risk.
For the dollar, NFP is the key trigger. Strong payrolls can support Treasury yields and re
