USDJPY Technical Analysis
US Dollar / Japanese Yen (USD/JPY)
Updated
Summary
- Underlying trend
- Neutral
- Stance
- Bearish Under 158.29
The underlying trend is currently neutral on USDJPY and the short term is slightly bearish. While the price stays below 158.28733, the technical signals lean bearish. A technical level on the downside is 156.75367, then 155.63233. A move back above 158.28733 would weaken this bearish reading.
Short-term selling against a rising weekly moving-average stack — more often a corrective pullback than a confirmed reversal. The bearish read strengthens only if weekly support gives way.
