USD/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook
Price action shows the USD/JPY is poised to consolidate further within the 159.00-160.00 area, even though further upside is seen, after the pair bounced off the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at 158.79, extending its gains past 159.00.
Momentum, although bullish with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) above its 50-neutral level, remains capped by fears for a possible intervention by Japanese authorities in the FX markets.
On the downside, if USD/JPY moves below 159.00, traders could eye the 50-day SMA at 158.78. Below this level lies the 100-day SMA at 157.62, ahead of the May 6 low of 155.04.
