The price test of 144.37 occurred when the MACD indicator had moved significantly below the zero mark, limiting further downward potential for the pair. For this reason, I did not sell and waited for the implementation of scenario No. 2 for buying the pair, which I detailed in yesterday's forecast. Shortly after that, another test at 144.37 occurred when the MACD indicator was in the oversold area and was recovering from it, confirming the correct entry point to buy, which brought about 100 pips of profit. A similar story, but in the opposite direction, occurred with 145.30, making it possible to take another approximately 90 pips of profit from the market.
Today's statement by the deputy governor of the Bank of Japan, declaring that the central bank will not raise interest rates while financial and capital markets are unstable, led to a sharp drop in the Japanese yen and strengthened the US dollar, which also partially calmed investors worried by the recent rise of the Japanese currency. Despite this, I will continue to act, relying more on short positions following the downward trend. However, it is best to do so as high as possible, especially after today's significant rise during the Asian session. As for the intraday strategy, I will rely more on implementing scenarios No. 1 and 2 for selling further along the trend.
Buy signals
Scenario No. 1. Today, I plan to buy USD/JPY when the price reaches the entry point around 147.26, plotted by the green line on the chart, with the goal of rising to 148.60 plotted by the thicker green line on the chart. At around 148.60, I will exit long positions and open short ones in the opposite direction, expecting a movement of 30-35 pips in the opposite direction from that level. We can only expect the pair to rise today within the framework of the upward correction. But the higher the pair will be, the more attractive it is to sell the dollar. Important: Before buying, ensure the MACD indicator is above the zero mark and starting to rise from it.
Scenario No. 2. I also plan to buy USD/JPY today in case of two consecutive tests of 146.70 when the MACD indicator is in the oversold area. This will limit the pair's downward potential and lead to a reverse market upturn. One can expect growth to the opposite levels of 147.26 and 148.60.
Sell signals
Scenario No. 1. I plan to sell USD/JPY today only after testing 146.70 plotted by the red line on the chart, which will lead to a rapid decline in the pair. The key target for sellers will be 145.48, where I will exit short positions and immediately open long positions in the opposite direction, expecting a movement of 20-25 pips in the opposite direction from that level. Pressure on USD/JPY may return at any moment, especially in case of unsuccessful correction in the first half of the day and failure to test the daily high. Important: Before selling, ensure the MACD indicator is below the zero mark and starting to decline.
Scenario No. 2. I also plan to sell USD/JPY today in case of two consecutive price tests at 147.26 when the MACD indicator is in the overbought area. This will limit the pair's upward potential and lead to a reverse market downturn. One can expect a decline to the opposite level of 146.70 and 145.48.
What's on the chart:
Thin green line: the entry price at which you can buy the trading instrument.
Thick green line: the estimated price at which you can set Take Profit or manually close positions, as further growth above this level is unlikely.
Thin red line: the entry price at which you can sell the trading instrument.
Thick red line: an estimated price at which you can place Take Profit or manually close positions, as further decline below this level is unlikely.
MACD indicator: when entering the market, it is essential to be guided by overbought and oversold zones.
Important: Novice traders in the forex market must be cautious when deciding to enter the market. It is best to stay out of the market before important fundamental reports are released to avoid getting caught in sharp price fluctuations. If you decide to trade during news releases, always place stop orders to minimize losses. You must set stop orders to avoid losing your entire deposit, especially if you don't use money management and trade in large volumes.
Remember, a clear trading plan, like the one I've outlined, is essential for successful trading. Making impulsive decisions based on the current market situation is a losing strategy for novice intraday traders.Pentru mai multe detalii, va invitam sa vizitati stirea originala.
