Hi Traders! USDJPY short term forecast and technical analysis is here. The way I would like to analyze the chart for setups is based on multi-timeframe confirmations because in my POV if we get more evidences on different timeframes for the same direction then it makes the setup much more reliable. If you would like to learn more about the way we trade and the technical analysis we use then check out the Home Trader Club Spoiler alert – free memberships are available! Let’s start our analysis from the highest timeframe which will be the daily chart here.
USDJPY D1(Daily) Chart Analysis – Strong Support Zone, Bullish Hidden Divergence, Parabolic Sar
On the daily chart, the price which was moving lower reached a strong support zone respected it and bounced higher from this zone. Also, we could see that the price which was moving lower has created a bullish hidden divergence between the first low that has formed at 127.219 and the second low that has formed at 129.640 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bullish pressure. In addition to this, based on the Parabolic Sar we could see that the dot is below the price which we may consider as yet another evidence of bullish pressure. Also, currently, there are no signs opposing this short term bullish view. So everything looks good here for the bulls and we may now move down to lower timeframe and look for evidence supporting this short-term bullish view.
USDJPY H4(4 Hours) Chart Analysis – Bullish Divergence, ADX Indicator
Looking at the H4 chart, we could see that the price which was moving lower has created a bullish divergence that has formed between the first low that has formed at 132.282 and the second low that has formed at 129.640 based on the MACD indicator which we may consider as evidence of bullish pressure. In addition to this, the ADX indicator gave a bullish signal here at the cross of +DI (green line) versus -DI (red line) and the main signal line (silver line) reads value over 25, we may consider this as yet another evidence of bullish pressure. Also, currently, there are no signs opposing this short term bullish view here as well. So based on all this, until the strong support zone (marked in blue) shown in the image below holds my short-term view remains bullish here and I expect the price to move higher further.
