The post Rebounds above 153. 00 as buyers stepped in appeared com. The USD/JPY stages a recovery on Friday with buyers claiming 153. 00, an indication that the uptrend might resume in the short term. The 100-pip or 0. 68% Thursday’s loss was offset by traders buying the US Dollar due to its close correlation with the US 10-year Treasury note yield, which was steady during the trading day. USD/JPY Price Forecast: Technical outlook The USD/JPY technical picture shows that buyers regained momentum at around 153. 00 with the next support level seen at the 20-day SMA at 152. 52. Although buyers kept the exchange rate from falling to 152. 80, a breach of the latter opens the door towards the 20-day SMA and on further weakness, the October 29 low lies next at 151. 53. However, buyers remain in charge as depicted by the RSI. That said, if USD/JPY rises above 154. 00, the next resistance would be the November 4 peak at 154. 48, followed by 155. 00.
