Chart of the Day - USD/JPY

Published 02/24/2023, 01:00 AM

Friday morning in Asian trade we will be seeing a couple of things that could put in some volatility in the USD/JPY. Number 1 would be the inflation data being released at 8:30 pm ET. Also, BOJ nominee Ueda will be attending a hearing which could lead to some JPY volatility as we could get a glimpse of how he will steer monetary policy at the BOJ. 

USD/JPY Daily Chart

Technically, the USD/JPY still looks poised to trade to the 38% retracement of the October 2022 highs to January 2023 lows at 136.70. Also, with the 200dma just above, this should be very good resistance on any spike higher toward that level.

Personally, playing JPY strength (XXXJPY short) in the coming weeks as Ueda takes the helm at the BOJ is how I am looking to play the currency.
