FX.co ★ Trading plan for USDJPY for July 31, 2020

Technical outlook:

USDJPY has dropped to 104.18 levels today and might have carved a meaningful bottom today. The currency pair is seen to be trading around 104.67 levels at this point in writing and is expected to produce a bullish reversal here. USDJPY is carving a potential pin-bar candlestick pattern on the daily chart, which is also known as a hammer. A confirmation of a hammer today will increase probability of a bullish Morning Star candlestick pattern on Monday. Also note that USDJPY is trading just below the fibonacci 0.618 retracement of the previous rally between 101.18 and 111.75 respectively, which is passing through 105.00/20 levels. The currency pair should trade higher from here, going forward.

Remain long, stop @ 103.18 target @ open

Good luck!
