FX.co ★ Forecast for USD/JPY on September 28, 2022

The yen's situation is unfolding in such a way that the Bank of Japan's intervention on September 22 to protect the level of 145.00 may turn out to be in vain. The price has already approached the resistance of 145.05, consolidating above which opens the 147.30 target – an embedded line of the global price channel.

The Marlin Oscillator is still kept in the positive area. Obviously, the BOJ is not able to withstand the global strengthening of the dollar, although the yen has been staying at current levels for three weeks now.

So, if there is no repeated intervention of the central bank close in volume to the last action (which is more likely), the pair will grow to 147.30. Support in the current situation is the embedded line of the price channel and the MACD indicator line approaching near the 141.28 mark.

On the four-hour chart, the price is consolidating under the linear resistance of 145.05. Consolidation above the level will be the first sign of the price's determination to go to 147.30. The Marlin Oscillator is stable in the positive area, it managed to consolidate, probably for a breakthrough upwards.
