So, instead of doing my Elliott wave analysis, today I am going to show you how a simple technical market analysis could show you a bird’s eye view about any Forex currency pair and in any time frame.

They are more powerful and important as well when it comes to define the support and resistance levels on a price chart.

Now, let us make the same chart a little bit more clear by adding resistance levels. Before I move forward I must first tell you my definition of a resistance level.

“A resistance is a price level on a chart which attracts Sellers”

Now, we have successfully defined a resistance area and the value is 111.47. So, we can now assume with high probability that trend is bearish in USD/JPY daily chart and we have an important resistance level present at 111.47 price level.

This means, it is a good idea to look for a possible sell trading opportunity at or around 108.66 price level. I must mention that it is a down trend going on in daily chart of USD/JPY. So, as long as price stays below 111.47 resistance level in USD/JPY daily time frame, you should not be looking for a buy trading chance as it would be against the existing bearish market trend. My whole trading idea is to first define the market trend. Next, look for trading opportunities that goes in the favour of market trend.

Now, when an existing bearish trend in USD/JPY is going to fail?

Well, the forecast is good for about next two weeks time and if price of USD/JPY currency pair breaks above the 111.47 resistance level then current bearish trend could end. At that point and time, we may need to re-analyze the daily chart price action of USD/JPY currency pair.

USD/JPY Forecast today with MACD

Let me first explain about convergence, before I explain what is going on in above daily chart of USD/JPY with standard MACD settings.

In simple words, “Convergence” means that price moves in one direction and technical indicator moves in the same direction. Out of many, one benefit of using MACD is to find out if there is a convergence present on a price chart or not? So, with the help of MACD convergence we can easily identify a possible trend confirmation in an existing bullish trend or bearish trend before we actually participate in the market, with a high probability.

So, USD/JPY daily chart MACD is currently bearish and below its zero level which supports the bearish USD/JPY Long term forecast. Now, we could also notice bearish convergence between MACD and bearish USD/JPY daily chart price action. It is very clear that price of USD/JPY daily chart is moving down, printing lower swing highs and lower swing lows. And MACD is also moving down in same price direction as indicated by the blue color trend lines on MACD and price chart.

So, a MACD bearish convergence suggests that USD/JPY is going to continue moving down in coming trading days. I must also mention that some times, convergence with MACD also fails like any other indicator or market trading approach.

Summary

 

USD/JPY Long term forecast suggests a down trend for next two weeks time and traders could look for a possible sell trading chance at or around 108.63 price level. Bearish convergence is present with MACD in daily time frame which suggests that we could see further bearish price action in USD/JPY daily chart in coming trading days. If price rise and closes a bullish candlestick above 111.47 resistance level then down trend is going to end.
