FX.co ★ Short-term analysis on USDJPY for October 31st, 2022.

Red lines- bullish channel

Blue rectangle- resistance

USDJPY is trading around 148.70. Price continues its upward bounce after the new lower low made last week around 145.10. The lower low in price was combined with a lower low by the RSI as well. This makes us believe that the upward move is most probably just a pause to the down trend. Trend remains bullish as price continues to trade inside the red upward sloping channel. Resistance is key at 148.90-149.40. Last time USDJPY visited this resistance area it got rejected. Bulls need to recapture this resistance area if they are to hope for more upside. USDJPY remains vulnerable to a move towards the lower channel boundary at 140.
