USD/JPY chart analysis
The technical analysis of the USDJPY price chart on 1-hour timeframe shows USDJPY: H1 is retracing down under the 200-period moving average MA(200) which is declining. We believe the bearish movement will continue after the price breaches below the lower bound of the Donchian channel at 112.67. A level below this can be used as an entry point for placing a pending order to sell. The stop loss can be placed above 113.73. After placing the order, the stop loss is to be moved to the next fractal high 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.
