The USD/JPY looks set to test the support at 112.58 (Tuesday’s low), having suffered a rising wedge breakdown earlier today.
A deeper drop below that level, possibly to the 100-day moving average (MA) of 112.24, cannot be ruled out as the US treasury yield curve inversion is being read as a sign of impending economic recession.
Hourly chart
- As seen above, the pair has established a bearish falling channel, having breached the rising trendline earlier this week.
- The rising wedge breakdown seen earlier today indicates the sell-off from the Dec. 3 high of 113.71 has resumed.
- The major averages (50, 100, and 200) are located one below the other, indicating the path of least resistance is on the downside.
