USD/JPY Analysis - page 95

 

End of day 8/nov/18



End of day chart shows the yen in a very tight range before the FOMC after which it let rip &  took out the 113.85 resistance to make a new high above 114.00

 

Day start S&R levels for 9/nov/18



The yen is in mid swing with 113.50 showing strong buyers  and many more scattered all the way down to 113.

114.50 has strong sellers so a sustained break there may not be easy 

 
The pair pulled back from 114.10 and I think we will see some correction before the move north continues.
 

USD/JPY dropped to 113.70 as Wall Street suffered heavy losses and despite the broad-based greenback’s  strength, the pair lost its traction in the second half of the day and fell below the 144.00 handle. Seems like the safe-haven flows helped the Japanese Yen finding some emand ahead of the weekend.

 

 
The match is moving to the drawback and I question that drop will end before USD/JPY achieves 105.30, or it may even achieve 104.60, which is (EMA)89 on the four-hour time period.
 

USD/JPY closed with bearish tone at 113.80. The price remains above its bullish moving averages but stochasrich is showing strong bearish momentum and RSI has lost directional strength around its mid line. First support zone is located at 113.60 and next one is 113.45. The upside offers resistance at 114.08 and higher at 114.30.

 
Good rally on the USDJPY to the 114.00 level where it finds some resistance and may pull back down. The 113.00 level may act as support, but above the 114.00 level the next resistance could be the 114.77 level.
 

Levels for day starting 11/11/18


Friday saw the yen edging lower from the 114.07 high. It found buyers every step of the way within a small trading range and could not sustain-ably break the 113.69 level.

It may try to test the lows further before resuming its up move. The 1st real support is seen @ 113.62 through to the much stronger 113.40 level. A buy signal  should be seen around those levels.

On the upside, 114.51 is the 1st real target with more sellers @ 114.62, 114.73 & 114.96

 
USD/JPY is still rallying and it broke out above 114.00. I think we will see it move north to the local high at 114.55.
 

After the USD/JPY pair has set fresh 1-month high, now is trying to retain the 114.00 level. The four hour time frame is showing that the pair continues trading well above its 100-day and 200-day SMAs and both are gaining ground just modestly, some 100 pips below the current level. Technical indicators in the same chart ease within positive levels, the Momentum at fresh daily lows and the RSI barely easing from overbought territory with last one limiting the downside potential. Bulls and bears are now battling for dominance. Should the pair lose the 113.85, the immediate support, bears will take control and the pair could extend its retracement then, down to 113.40. Above the mentioned high, on the other hand, the pair has room to extend its advance up to 114.54, the October monthly high.
