The USD/JPY daily chart is bearish biased, though it remains unable to extend its losses beneath 128.00
The USD/JPY is trading sideways in the near term, awaiting a break above/below 129.00/128.00.
On Thursday, the USD/JPY fails to hold to its gains and trades beneath its opening price by 0.33% after hitting a daily high of 128.88. At the time of writing, the USD/JPY exchanges hand at 128.40, amidst a risk-off impulse and a soft US Dollar (USD).
USD/JPY Price Analysis: Technical outlook
Failure to crack the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 131.13 exposed the USD/JPY to selling pressure. In addition, price action dived back below a three-month-old downslope resistance trendline, which tracks the USD/JPY downtrend. Therefore, the path of least resistance is downwards, but a decisive break below the YTD low of 127.21 is needed, so the USD/JPY might get poised towards the May 24 daily low of 126.36.
Short term, the USD/JPY 4-hour chart suggests the pair as range bound, although the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at bearish territory. The Rate of Change (RoC) shows buyers gathering momentum. Hence, mixed signals surrounding the USD/JPY pair might refrain traders from opening fresh positions unless a decisive break is achieved.
The USD/JPY key resistance levels are 129.00, the daily pivot at 129.33, and the 50-EMA at 129.60. On the other hand, the USD/JPY first support would be 128.00, followed by the January 18 daily low of 127.55, ahead of 127.00.
