USD/JPY chart analysis
The technical analysis of the USDJPY price chart on 1-hour timeframe shows USDJPY: H1 is attempting to retrace up above the 200-period moving average MA(200). The price reversed its rising after hitting a weekly high a day ago. We believe the bullish movement will resume after the price breaches above the upper bound of the Donchian channel at 114.01. A level above this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to buy. The stop loss can be placed below 113.79. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved to the next fractal low indicator, following Parabolic signals. Thus, we are changing the expected profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point. If the price meets the stop loss level without reaching the order, we recommend cancelling the order: the market has undergone internal changes which were not taken into account.
