USDJPY Channel Intact

USDJPY Channel Intact - JPY Jul 20 (Chart 1)

Theres no change in the declining trend of USDJPY despite the recent 300-pip rebound from its 91.70 low. The previous resistance of 94.40 was broken but 95.00 and 95.80 persist as the barriers within the falling channel. The 55 and 200-day moving averages (95.93 & 95.29 respectively) also loom as points of resistance. Unlike in Feb-March, improved Japanese macro data yens advances, with medium term objective standing at 93 and 92 (end of August). The chart is a WEEKLY illustration, which means we may not see sub 92 until month end at the earliest but this also means that recoveries remin short-lived.

    As many of you know 2023 was kind to members of our WhatsApp Broadcast Group who snapped up shares in bitcoin miners, while 2024 has so far been more superior to Bitcoin than most of the miners...

#USD/JPY, I started another short position Friday, I've been shorting it since .97's
Seems to be quite content to follow range pattern on longer time charts. Time will tell

Steven, thanks for that link.

AVG, did you see the USDJPY trade on the latest HOTCHART in the website. you must. I'm bearish USDJPY. Theres chance of seeing 95.40s-50s briefly but I expect lower USDJPY into 92. Please read that HotChart and previous analysis on the chart.

A_V_G. If i may. If you have taken a position in USDJPY then you should have an opinion as to where it may be going. Most feel its a good short to the low 90 range for the end of August.

For those of us interesting in USDJPY.

"Another bearish factor weighing on the pair is a news report from Nikkei newspaper that Japanese exporters have lowered their hedges from 9500 with Toyota now targeting 9000 and Sony 9300. If true, the drift below 9500 may no longer be as detrimental to Japanese economy as it was at the start of this year and will therefore face less resistance by Japanese monetary authorities.

I have come to realize (and read) that trying to find the tops and bottoms of things is just to risky though i'm guilty of it also. Ideally wait for confirmation of moves before taking a position. Thus NO shorts yet people! :) Just thought i'd pepper the forum on my staycation. Good luck.
