Look for a possible intervention

Last week, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) decided to maintain interest rates at their current levels. However, Japan's Financial Minister, Shunichi Suzuki, made it clear that he is open to exploring various options within the currency market. Notably, both US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Japan's Prime Minister Fumio Kishida have hinted at the possibility of intervening in the JPY exchange rate.

Technical indicators, such as the Stochastic, are signaling overbought conditions, and the price range between 153 and 155 is marked by significant resistance, making it an attractive level for potential intervention.
