Chart Analysis

On the daily timeframe, USDJPY: D1 breached up the resistance line of the short-term downtrend. A number of indicators of technical analysis formed signals for a further increase. We do not exclude a bullish movement if USDJPY rises above its last maximum: 107.5. This level can be used as an entry point. We can set a stop loss below the Parabolic signal, the last lower fractal and the lower Bollinger line: 105.7. After opening the pending order, we move the stop loss after the Bollinger and Parabolic signals to the next fractal minimum. Thus, we change the potential profit / loss ratio in our favor. After the transaction, the most risk-averse traders can switch to a four-hour chart and set a stop loss, moving it in the direction of the trend. If the price meets the stop level (105.7) without activating the order (107.5), it is recommended to delete the order: some internal changes in the market have not been taken into account.
