USD/JPY Ensemble of Dojis Highlights Hesitation From Traders




Talking Points



  • USD/JPY Technical Strategy: Sidelines Preferred


  • Daily Close Below 104.00 Suggests A ‘False Breakout’


  • Parade of Dojis Highlight Indecision Amongst Traders


USD/JPY remains in a vulnerable position after closing below the 104.00 barrier amongst signs of hesitation amongst traders denoted by a Dojicandlestick. This could leave the pair primed for a push towards the 103.00 floor. However the prospect of a more severe correction is questionable in the absence of classic bearish reversal signals.

A narrow trading band and parade of Dojis on the four hour chart is indicative of indecision amongst traders. This suggests awaiting a more constructive set of signals before entering new positions may be prudent.
