USD/JPY Price Analysis: Bears eye a test of 130.00 pre Federal Reserve

  • USD/JPY bulls eye a 50% mean reversion towards 130.30 that meets the prior support.
  • The outlook is bearish for the day ahead with a test of 130.00 eyed ahead of the Federal Reserve on Wednesday.

As seen, the bulls have steppe din in the 15-minute candle rotation and eye a 50% mean reversion towards 130.30 that meets the prior support that was broken in early Asian trade. This does leave the outlook bearish for the day ahead with a test of 130.00 eyed ahead of the Federal Reserve on Wednesday.
