The  USDJPY 
USD/JPY

The USD/JPY is the currency pair encompassing the dollar of the United States of America (symbol $, code USD), and the Japanese yen of Japan (symbol ¥, code JPY). The pair’s rate indicates how many Japanese yen are needed in order to purchase one US dollar. For example, when the USD/JPY is trading at 100.00, it means 1 US dollar is equivalent to 100 Japanese yen.  The US dollar (USD) is the world’s most traded currency, whilst the Japanese yen is the world’s third most traded currency, resulting in an extremely liquid pair, and very tight spreads, often staying within the 0 pip to 2 pip spread range on most forex brokers. Although the range of the USD/JPY isn’t traditionally particularly high, the lack of large price action often associated with other JPY pairs does make it easier to trade.This is especially true for short-term traders, although without offering a great pip potential. Even though the USD/JPY is the world’s second most traded pair, it’s not as popular as one might think with regards to retail traders.The pair carries a reputation as “boring”, although this isn’t an entirely accurate reflection. Trading the USD/JPYThe JPY is highly regarded as a safe haven currency, with investors often increasing their exposure following periods of uncertainty or market-induced fallouts.As both the US and Japan are highly developed economies, there are several key factors affecting the value of either currencies. This includes a range of economic indicators such as gross domestic product (GDP) growth, inflation, interest rates and unemployment data. Monetary policy by the US Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan are also large determinants in the value of each currency.

has moved lower and tests the 100 and 200 hour MAs at 115.284 and 115.235. The low price just reached a new low for the day at 115.24. The current price trades at 115.29.

A move below the 200 hour MA would increase the bearish bias for the pair with the broken 38.2% of the move down from the Feb 10 high at 115.14 as the next target, followed by the 115.00 natural support. A swing area cuts across at 114.945 to 115.00 as well. Move below those levels and the door opens for more downside momentum.

Hold the hourly MAs now and a move above the 50% midpoint at 115.369 would be needed to be rebroken to give some relief to the buyers/longs.
