Technical Chart

Market Analysis

USD/JPY briefly reached the critical resistance level of 161.90, marking the weakest point for the yen in nearly 40 years, before relinquishing some gains amid repeated verbal interventions from Bank of Japan officials that offered limited support for the Japanese yen.

Key Indicators

  • Technically, the overall momentum remains bullish. Nevertheless, a healthy pullback and consolidation are anticipated following this momentum surge, as the risk of a more severe correction has increased given the yen’s current price levels.

Fundamental Context

The USD/JPY has extended its rally beyond initial expectations. This advance was fueled by renewed dollar strength, driven by hawkish comments from Federal Reserve policymakers and persistent geopolitical concerns.

Risk Alert

The overall structure is still bullish. However, we may expect some profit-taking and certain manipulation around the current highs.
