Main Scenario

Consider short positions below the level of 161.75 with a target of 138.00 – 131.40 once the correction is completed.

Alternative Scenario

Breakout and consolidation above the level of 161.75 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 170.00 – 175.00.

Analysis

The daily time frame shows that an ascending wave of larger degree 3 is presumably formed, and a bearish correction is developing as the fourth wave 4, with wave (А) of 4 completed as its part. A corrective wave (В) of 4 is nearing completion on the H4 chart, with wave С of (В) forming inside. Apparently, the fifth wave of smaller degree v of C of (B) is developing on the H1 chart. After its completion, if this assumption is correct, the USDJPY pair will continue to fall to 138.00 – 131.40. The level of 161.75 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue rising to the levels of 170.00 – 175.00.
