USD/JPY may start downward correction 2/1/2025

The USD/JPY pair demonstrated upward momentum during the morning session, reaching a high of 157.78.

Technical Outlook:
Despite the recent bullish movement, we adopt a cautious bearish bias for today’s trading. This view is supported by early signs of a downward correction, with the Stochastic indicator signaling overbought conditions.

As long as daily trading remains below 157.90, a downward correction is the most likely scenario. The initial target is set at 156.20, with a break below this level paving the way for the next target at 155.70.

Alternative Scenario:
On the other hand, a sustained breach above 158.00 would invalidate the corrective decline and confirm the resumption of the broader upward trend, with potential gains extending toward 159.30.

Risk Considerations:
In light of ongoing geopolitical tensions, heightened market volatility remains a key risk. Traders are advised to exercise caution, as unexpected scenarios may arise.
