The USD/JPY pair experienced a surge in the previous trading session, aligning with our positive outlook, and reached the designated target at $147.00, marking its peak at $147.47.
From a technical standpoint, the simple moving averages persist in offering positive momentum. Additionally, there are clear positive signals on the 14-day momentum indicator at shorter time intervals, coupled with the breach of the $147.00 resistance.
This enhances the likelihood of the bullish trend continuing during today’s trading session, targeting $148.00 as the initial goal. If breached, the pair’s gains may extend, with the path opening up towards $148.70—an anticipated milestone. Further gains could potentially reach $149.30.
On the downside, the return of trading stability below $146.10 might subject the pair to temporary negative pressure, with the objective of retesting $144.80, possibly hampering further attempts to rise.
