USD/JPY to see a significant rise over coming years toward 150 on a break past 127.33 – Credit Suisse

USD/JPY is seeing a test of long-term price and ‘neckline’ resistance at 125.86/127.33. A break above here would mark a secular change of trend higher that could eventually see the market test 150 over the coming years, analysts at Credit Suisse report.

USD/JPY may be close to establishing a multi-year base

“A sustained break above the 125.86 high of 2015 and then ‘neckline’ resistance at 127.33 though would suggest we have seen the completion of a secular base to suggest we should see a significant further rise over the coming years.”

“Immediate resistance on a break would be seen at the 78.6% retracement of the 1998/2011 decline at 132.20, ahead of the 2002 high at 135.20.” 

“Big picture, we would see scope for a rise into the 147.62/153.01 zone over the coming years should the base be confirmed. We would note though the ‘measured base objective’ would imply significantly higher levels than this.”
