Yesterday, the USD/JPY pair was trading multidirectionally in the range of 157.90-158.55 (about a 6-month high) and closed the session near the price of 158.30. Today, the pair started trading mostly lower, dropping to around 157.75. On the hourly chart, USD/JPY rose slightly above the MA (200) H1 moving average line (157.55) and above the MA 200 H4 line (154.20) on the four-hour chart. Based on the above, it is probably worth sticking to the northern direction in trading and as long as the pair remains above the MA 200 H1, it is necessary to look for entry points to buy at the end of the correction.
Resistance levels are at: 158.55-80, 159.50, 161.80
Support levels are at: 157.35-55, 156.00-25, 154.45
The main scenario for the pair's progress is a breakout of the resistance of 158.55-80 (July 16 and Jan 7 high) and there may be an increase to 159.50 (July 12’ 2024 high)
An alternative scenario assumes a breakout of the support of 157.35-55 (Jan 7 low, MA (200) H1), followed by a likely fall to 156.00-25 (Dec 31 and Jan 6 low).
