Today's Scenario: - The USD/JPY pair experienced a decline during the American session as the Japanese Yen gained momentum due to risk aversion. This caused the pair to drop from a seven-week high near 137.75 to 136.36, reaching a new daily low.
Market sentiment was impacted by the underperformance of US regional bank stocks on Tuesday, despite the takeover of First Republic Bank.
Moreover, the US data released was slightly weaker than expected ahead of Wednesday's FOMC decision. Market participants still expect a 25 basis point rate hike, but bets of a rate cut later in the year have increased in the last few hours. As a result, the US 10-year Treasury yield is declining by more than 4% to 3.43%, while the 2-year yield fell from 4.14% to 3.94%, hitting the lowest levels since last Thursday. The Japanese Yen is benefiting from the decrease in government bond yields. The stock market indexes on Wall Street are experiencing a drop of over 1.5%, while the VIX (Volatility Index) has surged by 20%.

Buy Scenario: - To continue its bullish momentum, the USD/JPY pair needs to break through the pivot level at 136.866 and aim for the first major resistance level (R1) at 137.418. This would require support from the market risk sentiment and the Fed's policy. If the bulls continue their rally, the pair may test the Tuesday high of 137.773 and 138, but may fall short of the second major resistance level (R2) at 138.325. The third major resistance level (R3) is at 139.784. Till we did not advise to buy in USD/JPY.

Sell Scenario: - On the downside, if the pair fails to move through the pivot, the first major support level (S1) at 135.959 may come into play. However, it is expected to avoid falling below 135.5 and the second major support level (S2) at 135.407, barring a significant sell-off of the US dollar. The third major support level (S3) is at 133.948. Till we did not advise to sell the position in USD/JPY.

Support and Resistance Level: -
SupportResistance
S1 135.99-R1 137.45
S2 135.42-R2 138.34
S3 134.52-R3 138.91
