USD/JPY Price Analysis: Tumbles below 161.00 on back-to-back bearish days

  • USD/JPY drops for the second day amid signs of a weakening US labor market.
  • For bullish momentum, USD/JPY needs to surpass 161.00, facing resistance at 161.70 (July 4 high), 161.95 (YTD high), and 162.00.
  • Key support at 160.35 (Tenkan-Sen), 159.30 (Senkou Span A), and 158.25 (Kijun-Sen), marking possible pullback points.

The USD/JPY extended its losses to two consecutive days on Friday, as the US economy showed signs of weakness in the labor market, following a mixed US Nonfarm Payrolls report. Therefore, the pair trades at 160.72 and is down 0.34%.

USD/JPY Price Analysis: Technical outlook

The USD/JPY four-day rally stalled on Thursday, with sellers stepping in and driving the exchange rate below the 161.00 psychological level. This formed a doji in the weekly chart, hinting that higher prices could be difficult to achieve.

Given the backdrop, the pair must clear 161.00 for a bullish continuation. Once cleared, the next stop would be the July 4 high of 161.70 before testing the year-to-date (YTD) high of 161.95. Overhead resistance lies ahead, with 162.00 being the next ceiling level, before the pair aims toward the November 1986 high of 164.87.

Once the USD/JPY dropped below 161.00, the next stop would be the Tenkan-Sen at 160.35. A breach of the latter can exacerbate a pullback toward the Senkou Span A at 159.30, followed by the Kijun-Sen at 158.25.

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
