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 927 closed forex 2h signals since 6 Sep 2026 ended:
20 % at target avg +0.41 % 30 % holding time ended, in profit avg +0.20 % 36 % holding time ended, at a loss avg −0.22 % 15 % 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.

Analysis

🎯 Key Takeaways
  • A strong 2H bullish setup with a trendline break and ascending triangle breakout.
  • Multiple indicators (RSI, DEMA, EMA, KAMA) align in favor of upward momentum.
  • Immediate resistance at 158.603; a break above would confirm the move.
  • Support at 156.962 is the invalidation level; a close below would negate the signal.
The USD/JPY 2H chart has fired a cluster of bullish signals, led by a Trendline Break Up and an Ascending Triangle breakout, with supporting momentum from RSI OB Entry, DEMA Retreat Up, EMA Retreat Up, HT TRENDLINE Retreat Up, and KAMA Retreat Up. This confluence of trendline, chart pattern, and indicator signals points to strong bullish momentum in the 2H timeframe, with the ascending triangle suggesting accumulation and a potential continuation higher. The RSI overbought entry is notable as it indicates strength, though it also warns of possible short-term pullbacks.

Across timeframes, the bias is predominantly bullish from 15m up to 8h, with the 15m and 30m showing the most solid trends. However, the 1H to 8H timeframes are choppy and sideways, and the 12H and 1D are bearish, which tempers the overall conviction. The immediate resistance is at 158.603, and a break above that would confirm the bullish momentum. Support at 156.962 is the key level to watch; a close below it would invalidate the bullish setup. Traders should monitor the higher timeframe bearish bias and the overbought RSI for potential pullbacks.
Catalysts
  • ▲ Confluence of trendline, chart pattern, and indicator signals on the 2H timeframe.
  • ▲ Bullish alignment across 15m to 8H timeframes, with the strongest trends on lower timeframes.
  • ▲ Ascending triangle pattern typically resolves upward, supporting continuation.
  • ▲ Strong trend score (96%) and very strong signal strength.
Risk Factors
  • ▼ Higher timeframes (12H, 1D) are bearish, which could cap upside or reverse the move.
  • ▼ RSI overbought may lead to a pullback or consolidation before further upside.
  • ▼ Choppy/sideways trends on 1H to 8H indicate a lack of strong directional momentum.
  • ▼ A close below 156.962 support would invalidate the bullish setup.
