Today's Scenario: - The USD/JPY pair is struggling to gain momentum despite bouncing back from the 132.00 level yesterday. It is currently trading around the mid-132.00s and is not showing any significant movement. The US Dollar (USD) is experiencing selling pressure due to expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) is close to ending its rate-hiking cycle. This sentiment was strengthened by the US Producer Price Index (PPI) report, which showed a significant drop in inflation at the wholesale level in March. This followed a softer-than-expected US Consumer Price Index (CPI) report earlier this week, which suggested that inflation is not yet a concern for the Fed. As a result, the Fed may pause its policy tightening, which is weighing on the USD.

Buy Scenario: - On the upside, the immediate resistance level is at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of 132.85, followed by the 200-SMA hurdle of 133.35. However, the 50% Fibonacci retracement at 133.85 and the top line of the bullish trend channel at 134.60 could challenge the USD/JPY buyers.
Further resistance could be encountered at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level of around 134.80, also known as the golden Fibonacci ratio, and tops marked during March 10-15, close to 135.10-15. Till we did not advise to buy in USD/JPY.

Sell Scenario: - The USD/JPY pair continues to decline for the third consecutive day on Friday, currently trading near 132.40, after failing to extend its rebound from the previous day beyond the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of its fall in March. The MACD signals and RSI (14) remain bearish, suggesting further downside potential.
The pair is expected to test the 100-SMA support level around 132.15, with limited further weakness expected due to a three-week bullish trend channel that could provide support around 131.40.
If the pair breaks below the 131.40 support level, it could target the monthly low near 130.60 and the psychological level of 130.00 before heading towards the yearly low of 129.65, marked in March. Till we did not advise to sell the position in USD/JPY.

Support and Resistance Level: -

S1 131.93-R1 133.30
S2 131.29-R2 134.03
S3 130.57-R3 134.67
