The USD/JPY edges higher on Thursday, climbs above 147.00 for the first time since September, trades at 146.92 and gains 0.31% at the time of writing. The financial markets narrative hasn’t changed, as traders hear war drums beating, as the Middle East conflict escalates, triggering a flow to haven currencies, boosting the Greenback.
USD/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook
The USD/JPY daily chart is neutral to downward biased, as buyers tested the bottom of the Ichimoku Cloud (Kumo) at 147.25. Momentum hints that buyers remain in charge, and might push prices higher.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish, aiming to the upside. This means, the USD/JPY is tilted to the upside, in the near-term.
The USD/JPY must clear the top of the Kumo at 147.25. In that outcome, the next resistance would be the Senkou Span B at 147.78, followed by 148.00. If those levels are cleared, the 200-day moving average (DMA) would be next at 151.02.
Conversely, if the pair reverses its course, the first support would be the 50-DMA at 145.38. Once surpassed, the next stop would be the 145.00 figure, followed by the Senkou Span A at 143.93.
