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 6,241 closed forex signals since 6 Sep 2026 ended:

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.

Analysis

🎯 Key Takeaways
  • Bearish signals dominate the daily chart, but the trend is weak and mixed across timeframes.
  • Key support at 152.88300 is the level to watch for confirmation of further downside.
  • Resistance at 158.94900 must hold to keep the bearish scenario valid.
  • Conflicting bullish signals (CCI, MACD, MAMA) suggest the bearish move may lack momentum.
The USD/JPY daily chart has fired a cluster of bearish signals, including APO Zero Cross Down, BOP Zero Cross Down, and EMA 50 Retreat Down, alongside retreat signals from SMA and HT TRENDLINE. These indicators collectively point to fading upside momentum and a potential shift toward lower prices. The bearish case is reinforced by a bearish trend across the 15m, 30m, and 1h timeframes, with the 15m showing a solid trend. However, the higher timeframes (2h, 4h, 8h, 12h, 1d) are mixed, with several showing bullish or choppy conditions, suggesting the bearish signal is not yet fully aligned across all horizons.

Key levels to watch are the nearest resistance at 158.94900 and the nearest support at 152.88300. A sustained move below the support could confirm the bearish bias, while a reclaim of the resistance would invalidate the signal. The presence of conflicting signals, such as CCI Zero Cross Up and MACD Zero Cross Up, along with MAMA Cross Up, adds uncertainty, meaning the bearish outlook is not without counter-signals. Traders should monitor price action around these levels and the strength of the trend on higher timeframes before committing.
Catalysts
  • ▼ Multiple bearish indicator signals (APO, BOP, EMA 50, SMA, HT TRENDLINE) align on the daily chart.
  • ▼ Shorter timeframes (15m, 30m, 1h) are all bearish, supporting near-term downside.
  • ▼ The 15m timeframe shows a solid trend, indicating consistent selling pressure in the short term.
Risk Factors
  • ▲ Higher timeframes (2h, 8h) are bullish, which could counteract the bearish signal.
  • ▲ The presence of bullish crossovers (CCI, MACD, MAMA) suggests potential upward momentum.
  • ▲ A break above the resistance at 158.94900 would invalidate the bearish setup.
  • ▲ Weak trend scores on the daily and other higher timeframes indicate the bearish move may lack follow-through.
