Overview: USD/JPY had almost fully recovered from April’s 3.0% intervention-driven decline and was attempting a push above the 160 level today when Japanese officials possibly acted on their latest wave of warnings, curbing further yen depreciation around this threshold.
Momentum: Both the RSI and stochastic indicators appear to have peaked in overbought territory, suggesting a potential corrective bearish phase ahead.
Bearish scenario: A decisive break below 159.00 could meet the 200-period SMA at 158.60. More downside from there could reach the 157.85 support area.
Risk: A clear close above 160.30 could trigger a renewed bullish extension if Japanese officials delay further intervention actions.
