USD/JPY – 1H – BUY

The USD/JPY 1H signal is overwhelmingly bullish, with a very strong probability of 88% and a cluster of 17 signals spanning trendline breaks, a symmetrical triangle, and multiple momentum oscillators crossing above zero (BOP, CMO, MOM, ROC). The trendline break up and retreat up indicate a bullish reversal from a downtrend, while the symmetrical triangle suggests a period of consolidation that is resolving to the upside. The confluence of these signals on the 1H timeframe points to strong buying pressure and a likely continuation of the upward move.

However, the broader trend context is bearish across all higher timeframes, with the 4H, 8H, and 12H showing very strong bearish trends. This creates a conflict: the 1H bullish signal is counter-trend against the larger bearish structure. The nearest resistance at 157.95400 is a key level to watch; if price can break and hold above it, it could signal a deeper correction or even a reversal. The nearest support at 157.30400 is the invalidation level for this bullish signal.
