As we can see, all the JPY pairs are in a bearish run with price action reaching the upper trend line.
To add to the technicals on USDJPY specifically, we see the stochastic oscillator looking very overbought and about to turn over.
This candlestick pattern could be tweezer-tops when the current candle closes.
Also, the Bank of Japan will announce its Interest Rate next week and we expect a rise which will drive JPY pairs to the downside.
We find USD weaker since the beginning of August with the Democrats looking likely to take the White House in November.
A recent pullback is obvious but we see, for example, a falling wedge on EURUSD which is a bullish indication.
We find Gold at near record highs and price action has formed an ascending triangle and price could go either way.
The weaker USD is helping keep the price of gold high.
We see a similar situation with Silver in what could be an ascending triangle or, in fact, a symmetrical pennant.
That’s all for now.

EUR/USD extends recovery beyond 1.0400 amid Wall Street's turnaround
EUR/USD extends its recovery beyond 1.0400, helped by the better performance of Wall Street and softer-than-anticipated United States PCE inflation. Profit-taking ahead of the winter holidays also takes its toll.
GBP/USD nears 1.2600 on renewed USD weakness
GBP/USD extends its rebound from multi-month lows and approaches 1.2600. The US Dollar stays on the back foot after softer-than-expected PCE inflation data, helping the pair edge higher. Nevertheless, GBP/USD remains on track to end the week in negative territory.
Gold rises above $2,620 as US yields edge lower
Gold extends its daily rebound and trades above $2,620 on Friday. The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield declines toward 4.5% following the PCE inflation data for November, helping XAU/USD stretch higher in the American session.
Bitcoin crashes to $96,000, altcoins bleed: Top trades for sidelined buyers
Bitcoin (BTC) slipped under the $100,000 milestone and touched the $96,000 level briefly on Friday, a sharp decline that has also hit hard prices of other altcoins and particularly meme coins.
Bank of England stays on hold, but a dovish front is building
Bank of England rates were maintained at 4.75% today, in line with expectations. However, the 6-3 vote split sent a moderately dovish signal to markets, prompting some dovish repricing and a weaker pound. We remain more dovish than market pricing for 2025.
