Every read JAFX AI made on the USD/JPY daily chart that day, newest first: trend, structure, the levels it marked and what it said to watch.
10:59 UTC
Uptrend, stalling near 160 · RSI 59 · price 160.196
Higher highs capped at intervention zone.
Multi-month uptrend off the early-February low near 152.30, with price holding above a rising EMA(50) throughout. The advance has stalled into the 160.00 intervention zone since late April, grinding sideways between roughly 159.40 and 160.55 for several weeks after the late-March 160.72 spike was rejected. Each push toward 160.55 has met supply, keeping the tape pinned just under authorities' tolerance line.
Support: 159.40
Resistance: 160.55, 160.72
What it said to watch
BoJ rate decision Tue Jun 16 03:00 UTC — dovish-hike vs hawkish guidance is the key swing risk for this read
MoF intervention risk near 160 caps upside; a daily close above 160.72 would clear the spike high
Daily close below 159.40 confirms a lower-low and breaks the multi-week range floor
Multi-month uptrend off the February 152.27 low, price holding above a rising EMA(50) and grinding into the 160.59–160.72 ceiling that capped the early-April spike. Momentum has flattened over the last two weeks as USD/JPY pins near the 160.00 intervention zone, with the BoJ widely expected to hike to 1% Tuesday — a move that is already priced. The pair is consolidating in the upper 159.40–160.70 band rather than extending.
Support: 160.00, 159.40
Resistance: 160.59, 160.72
What it said to watch
BoJ rate decision Jun 16 03:00 UTC could materially shift this read
Daily close above 160.72 spike high opens the path to fresh highs
Failure to hold 159.40 range low confirms a lower-low
MoF intervention near 160.00 psych would sharply unwind the grind
