USD/JPY retraces its recent gains registered in the previous session, trading around 156.10 during the European hours on Monday. On the daily chart, technical analysis indicates the 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) sitting at 52.80 (neutral) after easing from recent readings. A turn higher in RSI would strengthen bullish conviction, while a drift toward 50 would keep range-bound conditions in place.
The 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) rises, supporting the broader uptrend. The nine-day EMA is flat with price hovering around it, pointing to near-term consolidation. The setup keeps a modest bullish bias while above the rising 50-day EMA.
Upside momentum would re-accelerate on a daily close above the immediate barrier at the nine-day EMA of 156.19, opening the path toward the next resistance around the 11-month high of 157.90. Further advances would support the USD/JPY pair to test the 158.88, the highest since July 2024.
On the downside, a rejection at the nine-day EMA and a break beneath the nearest support at the upside trendline around 155.10 would shift focus to the secondary floor and risk a deeper pullback toward the 50-day EMA at 154.72.
