USDJPY Daily Chart Insights

• Stochastic oscillator: The indicator sends a bullish signal in the oversold area. At the same time, the exchange rate accelerates after forming a pin bar, which makes it clear that the rebound trend is coming. It is not advisable to short easily in the short term.
• Resistance area: Although the exchange rate rebounded strongly yesterday, there are many resistances above and it may fall into adjustment next. The exchange rate is about to approach the purple 13-day moving average, which is also near the downward trend line. If it continues to break through, it will not be far away from 144.55-the lower edge of the previous oscillation range.

USDJPY 2-hour Chart Analysis

• Stochastic oscillator: The indicator sends a bullish signal again above the 50 median line, which means that the market continues the rebound trend. It is worth noting that the current exchange rate and the indicator form a potential top divergence pattern, so be alert to the probability of subsequent downward adjustments.
• Upper resistance: Based on the fact that the exchange rate still broke through the intraday high after a sharp retracement to the purple 13-period moving average, it is clear that the bullish trend is strong. The next target is to look at the green 200-period moving average, which is also near the 144 integer mark on the upper edge of the oscillation range.
