21:03 UTC
Uptrend rolling over near highs · RSI 42 · price 161.729
Lower highs since 162.70, testing 161.75.
The multi-week climb into four-decade highs stalled at the 162.50/162.70 intervention zone, printing a double top before rolling over — price now carves lower highs and sits back below both EMAs after fading from that record area. The dollar is heavy at three-week lows as the Iran safe-haven bid unwinds, and the 161.75 pivot has flipped from support to resistance, capping the current bounce.
Support: 161.28, 160.90
Resistance: 161.75, 162.50, 162.70
What it said to watch
H4 close above 161.75 negates the lower-high sequence
Break below 161.28 confirms lower low toward 160.90 drop low
162.50 intervention line — area to watch for rejection or break
US CPI Tue 12:30 UTC could materially shift this read

Uptrend stalling, rolling over · RSI 44 · price 161.729
Twin peaks near 162.7, lower highs forming.
USDJPY's multi-week grind to four-decade highs has stalled beneath the 162.50 intervention line, printing twin peaks at 162.84 and 162.71 before rolling over. The pair has broken back below the 161.75 flip level and is now working the mid of the 160.90-162.71 range, with JPY firmer on intervention fears and pension-repatriation talk. ATR near 35 pips reflects contained but expanding two-way swings after the sharp break from the highs.
Support: 161.28, 160.90
Resistance: 161.75, 162.50, 162.71
What it said to watch
US CPI Tue 12:30 UTC and Warsh testimony could reset the rate-differential read
A close back above 162.50 re-enters the intervention trigger zone
Failure to reclaim 161.75 keeps the lower-high structure intact
Break of 161.28 opens the path to the 160.90 range low
