USD/JPY Chart Analysis
USD/JPY Technical Analysis
The USDJPY technical analysis of the price chart on 4-hour timeframe shows USDJPY,H4 is retracing up toward the 200-period moving average MA(200) after hitting four-month low three days ago. We believe the bullish momentum will continue after the price breaches above the upper bound of the Donchian channel at 150.156. A level above this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 148.773. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved to the next fractal low indicator, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level without reaching the order, we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.
Fundamental Analysis of Forex - USD/JPY
Inflation in Japan's capital slowed in February. Will the USDJPY price retreating reverse?
Japanese consumer inflation slowed more than expected: the Statistics Bureau of Japan reported the Tokyo Core Consumer Price Index (CPI) growth slowed to 2.2% over year in February after 2.5% growth in January when a decline to 2.3% was expected. Inflation data for Tokyo are used as a leading indicator of Japanese nationwide trends. The Bank of Japan raised its policy rate to 0.5% from 0.25% during its January meeting and revised its inflation projections upward, signaling the potential for further rate hikes as inflation remained above the Bank of Japan’s 2% target for the fourth consecutive month. The expected slowing of consumer prices rise (excluding fresh food prices) points to moderating cost-push pressure in the world's third-largest economy. Slower Japanese core prices inflation is bearish for yen and bullish for USDJPY.
