Target and stop are recalculated on every candle and can move.
The plan applies until the end. Warning signs along the way are notes, not an exit signal – exiting at warning signs has not paid off on average in our measurements.

What we have measured
This is how 5,854 closed forex signals since 6 Sep 2026 ended:
18 % at target avg +0.36 % 33 % holding time ended, in profit avg +0.18 % 37 % holding time ended, at a loss avg −0.19 % 12 % at stop avg −0.44 %

Missing the target is not the same as a loss: when the holding time ends, the trade closes at the market price – in profit or at a loss.

How we work
  • Every signal is tracked to the end and counted, losses included – so far 31,056 closed live signals.
  • Every figure on this page was fixed in advance and checked on data that was not used to develop it.
  • What does not hold up, we do not recommend: we tested exiting at warning signs on about 98,000 trades – on average it gains nothing, so there is no such recommendation.
  • More than 150 logged experiments, each with its result – including the ones that failed.
  • All figures are gross: without your broker’s fees, spreads and slippage.

Analysis

🎯 Key Takeaways
  • Daily bullish signals are weak (59%) and conflict with bearish higher timeframes.
  • Watch the 160.389 resistance and 152.883 support as critical decision levels.
  • Momentum indicators (BOP, STOCHF, WILLR) show early bullish pressure but lack confirmation.
  • Higher timeframe trends (2h-8h) are bearish, suggesting a possible counter-trend move.
The USD/JPY 1D signal aggregates a cluster of momentum and oscillator indicators—BOP Zero Cross Up, DX Trend Strong, STOCHF KD Cross Up, WILLR OS Exit, CTI OS Entry, and ERI BULL Zero Cross Down—suggesting early bullish pressure within the daily timeframe. However, the overall probability is moderate at 59% with weak strength, and the higher timeframes (2h, 4h, 8h) remain bearish with solid trends, creating a conflicting backdrop. The daily trend is choppy, indicating that the bullish signals may represent a counter-trend correction rather than a sustained reversal.

Key levels to monitor are the nearest resistance at 160.389 and support at 152.883. A break above resistance would confirm bullish momentum, while a move below support would invalidate the signal. Given the bearish higher timeframes, traders should expect limited upside unless the daily momentum strengthens and aligns with the longer-term direction.
Catalysts
  • ▲ Multiple oscillator signals (BOP, STOCHF, WILLR, CTI) align on the daily timeframe.
  • ▲ DX Trend Strong indicates underlying trend strength in the daily view.
  • ▲ ERI BULL and KST cross signals add confluence to the bullish case.
Risk Factors
  • ▼ Bearish trends on 2h, 4h, and 8h timeframes could override the daily signal.
  • ▼ Weak signal strength and moderate probability reduce conviction.
  • ▼ A drop below 152.883 support would invalidate the bullish scenario.
  • ▼ Choppy daily trend suggests low momentum, risking a false breakout.
