USD/JPY Price Analysis and Trade Forecast: Daily Trading Signal
Daily Price Outlook
- USD/JPY breaks rising channel, tests oversold levels
- RSI near 30 supports potential bounce from ¥146.60
- Reclaiming ¥148.095 could revive bullish sentiment
The U.S. dollar is rebounding modestly against the Japanese yen after a sharp intraday sell-off that broke decisively below the rising channel structure.
The pair fell from above ¥149, slicing through key support at ¥148.095 and triggering a steep drop toward a local low near ¥146.80. The price now sits just above the buy-entry zone at ¥146.607, where dip buyers may attempt to regain short-term control.
Technical damage has been done with the break below the 50-period SMA at ¥149.457, shifting the short-term bias to bearish.
However, momentum indicators suggest the decline may be overextended. The RSI currently reads 30.60, indicating the pair has reached oversold territory. If ¥146.607 holds, a recovery toward ¥148.655 is possible, in line with the previously tested support-turned-resistance level.
Below ¥146.607, further downside could accelerate toward the stop loss zone at ¥145.654. A break of this level may expose deeper levels at ¥144.979 and ¥144.226.
Conversely, a bullish reversal above ¥148.095 would shift the tone, reopening the path toward the 50-SMA at ¥149.457. Entry above ¥146.607 favors a rebound toward ¥148.655. Stop loss placed at ¥145.654 to manage downside exposure.
