The article covers the following subjects:

Highlights and key points

  • Main scenario: consider short positions from corrections below the level of 149.34 with a bearish target of 131.25 – 123.97. A sell signal: if the price holds below 149.34. Stop Loss: above 150.50, Take Profit: 131.25 – 123.97.
  • Alternative scenario: breakout and consolidation above the level of 149.34 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 155.22 – 161.75. A buy signal: once the level of 149.34 is broken to the upside. Stop Loss: below 148.00, Take Profit: 155.22 – 161.75.

Main scenario

Consider short positions from corrections below the level of 149.34 with a target of 131.25 – 123.97.

Alternative scenario

Breakout and consolidation above the level of 149.34 will allow the pair to continue rising to the levels of 155.22 – 161.75. 

Analysis

An ascending wave of larger degree 3 has presumably finished developing on the weekly chart, with wave (5) of 3 formed as its part. A bearish correction has started developing as the fourth wave of larger degree 4 on the daily chart, with wave (А) of 4 forming as its part. Apparently, wave 1 of А and a local corrective wave 2 of А are formed on the H4 time frame, and wave 3 of A is unfolding at the moment. If the presumption is correct, the USDJPY pair will continue declining to the levels of 131.25 – 123.97. The level of 149.34 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue rising to the levels of 155.22 – 161.75.
