However, this correlation has been fairly weak over recent months, and has only applied during extreme risk-off events.<\/p><p>The USDJPY story has been one of US dollar weakness over recent weeks and months, rather than risk driven trade. This theme is set to continue, as the US dollar is still breaking down against other currencies, and the euro and the British pound now look set to move into much higher trading ranges against the greenback.<\/p><p>It is dififcult to know how low the USDJPY pair can drop as the US dollar continues its ongoing down trend. One thing we do know is that the Bank of Japan does prefer a weak Yen currency, and could intervene if the USDJPY pair continues to slide much further.<\/p><p>The red line for the Bank of Japan has previously been the 100.00 handle. With that said, they could intervene slightly before or slightly after a break of the 100.00 level took place. It is also good to know this fact as the US dollar continues to depreiciate against the Japanse yen, incase the central bank do actively enter the market.<\/p><p>Currently, the technical are showing a clear path lower for the pair, and if sellers can breach the 101.00 handle, then the USDJPY pair could indeed be in very real danger of breaching the psychological 100.00 benchmark level.<\/p><p><strong>USDJPY Short-Term Technical Analysis<\/strong><\/p><p>The four-hour time frame shows that a bearish breakout from a large triangle pattern has been unfolding ove recent weeks. The USDJPY pair appears to be testing back towards the initial breakout point right now.<\/p><p>According to technical analysis, and the overall size of the mentioned pattern, the USDJPY pair could be expected to fall towards the 102.50 area over the medium-term. Which is slightly below the current monthly price low.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-aa2562e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"aa2562e\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-26786b6\" data-id=\"26786b6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70b951f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"70b951f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1004\" height=\"494\" src=\"https:\/\/youtrading.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/USDJPY-4H.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1978\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4f2182f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4f2182f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6abc130\" data-id=\"6abc130\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-acd10d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"acd10d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>Source by ActivTrader.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e616ec1 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"e616ec1\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-row\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-85191b4\" data-id=\"85191b4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-76203e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"76203e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>At present, USDJPY bulls need to move the price back above the 104.10 level to move back inside the symmetrical triangle pattern.<\/p><p>If the pair is rejected from the top of the wedge then the USDJPY pair could tumble to a new multi-month and multi-year low.
