The USD/JPY dropped after reaching a four-day high of 142.47, yet it remains range-bound during the North American session. The rise in US Treasury yields and a soft US Dollar keeps the pair trapped within the September 17 trading range. Therefore, the major trades at 141.88, losses 0.36%
The USD/JPY downtrend remains in place, but the Federal Reserve’s decision to cut rates by a smaller or larger size could trigger different reactions. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) favors sellers, hence further downside.
If the Fed lowers rates by 25 basis points, this could be bullish for the USD/JPY and push prices toward the September 17 high at 142.47, which, if cleared, will expose the 143.00 figure.
On the other hand, a 50 bps rate cut could allow the September 17 low of 140.32 to be retested and pave the way for the challenge of the year-to-date (YTD) low of 139.58.
