Recap of previous trading day (July 25)

Yesterday the USDJPY bottomed at 151.93 at some point between GMT 08:00 and GMT 09:00, formed an inverse head and shoulders, and began rising.

U.S. real gross domestic product (GDP) for Q2 (preliminary) was announced just after GMT 12:30. Against a consensus forecast of annualized growth of 2.0%, the actual figure was a robust 2.8%. In response to this the market gathered momentum after breaking above the neckline of the inverse head and shoulders, hitting a high of 154.32 some time after GMT 16:00.

Recap of the Tokyo market and outlook going forward

Today the USDJPY lacked direction in the morning, with the market confined to a price range centered on 154 yen.

Looking at the 1-hour chart of the USDJPY (as of GMT 03:25 on July 26), due to the pause in the fall in the price, the middle line of the Bollinger Bands has switched to an upward trend.
