USDJPY/ Toward 155.06

Generally, the direction is uptrend

Uptrend Side: The price has reached the upper boundary of the resistance zone at 157.63. A breakout above this level is required to continue upward movement. Subsequently, the price will encounter the trendline of the progress channel. A confirmed breakout of the channel, marked by the closing of a 4-hour candle, would likely propel the price toward 159.24.

Downtrend Side: A strong barrier is in place, potentially driving the price downward toward 156.01. Currently, the price is trading below the resistance level of 157.63. Additionally, the channel barrier serves as a significant obstacle, likely exerting further downward pressure if the price comes into contact with it.

Tendency Keys: 157.63
