Japanese Yen remains heavily offered near 154.00, hits fresh multi-decade low against USD

Technical Analysis: USD/JPY bulls retain control near 154.00 mark, despite overbought conditions on the daily chart

From a technical perspective, last week's sustained breakthrough of a short-term trading range hurdle near the 152.00 mark was seen as a fresh trigger for bulls. The subsequent move-up validates the constructive outlook, though the overbought Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart makes it prudent to wait for some near-term consolidation before positioning for any further appreciating move. Nevertheless, the USD/JPY pair seems poised to prolong its recent well-established uptrend and aim toward reclaiming the 154.00 round figure.

On the flip side, any meaningful corrective decline below the 153.00 mark is likely to attract fresh buyers and remain limited near Friday's swing low, around the 152.60 region. A convincing break below, however, could prompt some technical selling and drag the USD/JPY pair to the 152.00 mark en route to the 151.40 intermediate support and the 151.00 round figure. The latter should act as a key pivotal point, which, if broken, will suggest that spot prices have topped out in the near term and shift the bias in favor of bearish traders.
