Marktanalyse

The Japanese yen declined against the US dollar, marking the sixth straight session of losses. Although the medium-term view remains bullish, some short-term indicators point to a possible pullback.

Key Indicators

  • USD/JPY bulls maintained control with a powerful bullish continuation candle, but the price struggle to hold above the 50 SMA, with the 4-hour RSI rising above 80, indicating stretched conditions.

Fundamental Context

USD/JPY soared to a fresh 2-week high of 159.05. For this week, the main drivers for the USDJPY remain the movement of the US dollar, Fed policymakers' comments, geopolitical tensions, and April FOMC meeting minutes.

Risicowaarschuwing

The price is approaching a key red horizontal resistance zone. Watch for a pullback. However, please note that for a strong bearish shift, the USDJPY needs a daily close below 156.50; otherwise, the bullish momentum will continue after the consolidation.
