USDJPY | Perspective for the new week | follow-up details

已更新

Following our previous analysis on the USDJPY where it was possible to scoop over 500 pips profit (see link below for reference purposes); price action is at a critical juncture at the moment as it oscillates around the 128.000 level. The Greenback weakens in the wake of the CPI and the Japanese Yen continues to soar ahead of the BoJ monetary policy and interest rate decision this week. Despite the US Dollar slipping to its lowest level since June 2022; there is still a long-term bullish momentum from a higher time frame's perspective (daily and weekly). Following Thursday's data showing that U.S. CPI inflation eased in December 2022, could this be a sign to anticipate a reversal pattern in the coming week or events from the BoJ will send a new wave of sell-offs in this market?
