USD/JPY Price Analysis: Pullback from weekly high as buyers’ eye further gains

  • USD/JPY dips but retains gains for the week with a slight 0.17% increase, hinting at a bullish undertone.
  • Technical outlook suggests neutrality with an upward bias, positioned above the Ichimoku Cloud.
  • Resistance and support levels outlined for potential bullish continuation or pullback scenarios.

The USD/JPY retreats, after hitting weekly highs of 150.77, aim back below the 150.50 figure late in the North American session. The major exchanges hands at 150.44, down 0.05%, but set to finish the week with gains of 0.17%.

From a technical perspective, the pair is neutral to upward biased, remaining well positioned above the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo). Price action suggests that buyers need to push the USD/JPY above the February 13 high at 150.88 to remain hopeful for a bullish continuation. The next resistance would be 151.00, followed by last year’s high at 151.91. Relative Strength Index (RSI) studies remain bullish, indicating that buyers might have the upper hand.

Conversely, if sellers drag the USD/JPY below 150.00, that will pave the way for a pullback. The next demand area will be the Tenkan-Sen at 150.05, followed by the Senkou Span A at 149.22. A further downside is seen at the Kijun Sen at 148.39.
