USD/JPY – 30M – BUY

The USD/JPY 30-minute signal has fired a dense cluster of bullish momentum oscillators after a period of oversold conditions. The BOP Zero Cross Up, CCI OS Exit, STOCH OS Exit, STOCHRSI KD Cross Up, and WILLR OS Exit all indicate that selling pressure has exhausted and buyers are stepping in. The DI Cross Up and DM Cross Up confirm a fresh bullish directional move, while the EMA 50 Retreat Up adds a trend-alignment element. Together, these signals point to a short-term bounce or reversal attempt within the 30-minute timeframe.

However, the broader picture is mixed. While the 15m, 30m, and 2h timeframes show bullish or forming bullish trends, the 1h, 4h, 8h, 12h, and 1d timeframes remain bearish with solid trend scores. This suggests the current bullish signal is likely a counter-trend move within a larger downtrend. The nearest resistance at 159.17900 is the key level to watch; a break above it could confirm a deeper correction, while failure to hold above it would keep the bearish bias intact. Support at 158.19700 is the immediate downside buffer.
