USDJPY 1-Hour Chart
Blue lines dominating, indicating some shift in risk to the downside or more of a two-sided market after another failure to take out 150.89
However, price action remains contained while within 149.53 and 150.89 where 150 should continue to set the bias
Supports on either side of 150: 149.93-150.01-150.12
150.54 needs to hold on top to keep the focus on 150 and away from 150.84-89
Why did USDJPY fall today?
Technicians will cite another failed run at 150.89 and market positioning that is heavily short JPY, both vs. the USD and on its crosses
Those who say news matters will cite the release of a smaller-than-expected fall in annual Japanese inflation in a market that is hypersensitive to any data that might prompt the BoJ to raise interest rates.,
USDJPY: Stuck in Limbo – Uptrend Consolidation or Downturn Signal?
USDJPY has been stuck in neutral territory, oscillating within a trading range between 149.52 and 150.88. This sideways movement leaves the near-term direction unclear, prompting questions about whether it’s a pause within the uptrend or a sign of a potential reversal. Let’s delve into the key support and resistance levels to understand the possible scenarios.
Uptrend on Hold? Sideways Consolidation as a Signal
149.52 Support: The Bullish Anchor: As long as the price remains above this crucial support level, the uptrend initiated at 145.89 remains valid. This suggests the current sideways movement could be a healthy consolidation phase within the ongoing uptrend.
Breakout Potential: If the bulls manage to accumulate enough strength and push the price above the 150.88 resistance level, it could signal a breakout from the range and trigger a further rise towards the 151.90 resistance, potentially solidifying the uptrend.Downturn Signals: Watching the Support Crack
149.52 Breach: A Reversal Indicator: A breakdown below the 149.52 support level would be a significant development, potentially indicating a completion of the uptrend from 145.89. This could lead to a decline towards the next support zone around 148.80, marking a potential trend reversal.
Overall Sentiment:
The current technical picture for USDJPY presents conflicting signals. The sideways movement creates uncertainty, leaving the near-term direction unclear. While holding above 149.52 and breaking above 150.88 suggest potential bullish continuation, a breakdown below support could signal a trend reversal and further decline. Monitoring the price action around the mentioned support and resistance levels will be crucial in determining the pair’s next move.

USDJPY Weekly Outlook
Supports at  149.800 and 148.650
Resistance 152.000
There is not much to say about this pair, except that Pattern wise it is destined to try 152.000 area.
Problem comes from the fact that we have already double top in place, and if rejected for the third time, it will be not only technically visible, but would mean that BOJ decided to put Money where their Mouth is.
We can always see sharp drops in JPY , followed by even sharper ascent . But any possible drop below 145.000 and  consequently 143.300 would put the whole Up trend in question.

Similar to others, USDJOY is ending the week with a whimper but getting a reprieve from the dip in US bond yields
Wise rRngw `149.53-150.89
I wouldn’t be surprised to learn the BoJ has been covertly intervening as it has been rumored for years to do so via surrogates.
Whatever the case, 150 remains the ultimate bias-setting level

USDJPY Analysis: Sideways Movement Continues, Resistance and Support Levels
The USDJPY pair has attempted to break below the 149.52 support level but failed and has since moved sideways within a trading range between 149.52 and 150.88.
As long as the 149.52 support level holds, the sideways movement could be seen as consolidation for the uptrend from 145.89. A breakthrough of the 150.88 resistance level could trigger another rise towards the 151.90 resistance level.
On the other hand, a breakdown below the 149.52 support level would indicate that the upside move from 145.89 has already completed at 150.88. In this case, the pair would find support around the 147.50 area.
