USD/JPY stabilizes as Japan awaits inflation data
The USD/JPY exchange rate is stable as traders review recent monetary policy from the Bank of Japan and the Federal Reserve. Currently, the USD/JPY pair is trading near the 150.00 level, showing little change. Market analysts noted a 'gravestone doji' pattern, which could suggest a potential decrease in price. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) shows some bullish signs, but breaking above 149.00 could lead to targets at 149.47 and 150.00. If it fails to surpass 149.00, it might fall to 148.34 and 148.00. This week, USD/JPY experienced some upward movement but did not reach 150.00, leading to more sideways trading. Buyers showed interest at around 148.10, pushing prices higher. Although the RSI indicates a bearish trend, its slight upward shift suggests buying momentum. If the USD/JPY can exceed the 149.00 threshold, resistance levels to watch are at 149.47 and 150.00. A strong upward move could see targets near 150.60. On the other hand, if it cannot break through 149.00, it may drop to 148.34. A daily close below this level could open the way for further declines to support levels at 148.00 and the March 11 low of 146.54.
