03rd August 2022 Wednesday: Technical Outlook and Review

USD/JPY:

On the H4, price is bearish biased and moving strongly in an ascending trendline. It is still respecting the Ichimoku indicator, and has already broken the key support level at 131.527. The chart has confirmed a strong downside momentum and is now going to test at 134.233 which coincides with 50% Fibonacci retracement. If price were to pull back further, it will test the 2nd resistance at 134.798. Alternatively, price could bounce back to test at 132.543 which is the Fibonacci 23.6% and previous swing low

Areas of consideration:

  • H4 time frame, 1st resistance at 134.233
  • H4 time frame, 1st support at 131.543

On the H4, prices have broken the ascending trend into an overall bearish biased trend. Prices have made a turn into a slightly bullish biased trend, though it is still respecting the Ichimoku cloud. It is now testing 23.6% Fibonacci Projection. If price were to break this resistance level, it will pull back further to test at 23.6% Fibonacci Projection and 50% retracement level at 107.271. Alternatively, price could bounce back and test at the first intermediate support at 105.539 then 105.084 which is the the previous swing low and key support level
