USD/JPY Price Analysis: Aiming for a Six-Year High of 125.10

• The asset has become unbalanced as a result of the Darvas box chart formation exploding.

• The advance of the 20 and 50-period exponential moving averages indicates that the upside is still intact.

• The RSI (14) is currently trading inside a positive range of 60.00-80.00.

The USD/JPY pair has shifted to an imbalanced state and is closing in on a new six-year high of 125.10, set on March 28 after auctioning in a narrow-range box. On Tuesday, the pair saw a bullish open rejection-reverse session, as the asset declined from its beginning price of 122.80. The major, on the other hand, faced hefty bids to around 122.38 as investors opted for a 'buy the dip' strategy.

On the hourly scale, the structure reflects a stronger breakout of a Darvas box chart pattern that is drawn in the region of 121.30-123.00. The Darvas box chart pattern explodes, resulting in an increase in volume and volatility.

The 20- and 50-period Exponential Moving Averages (EMAs) remain elevated at 123.35 and 123.00, respectively, indicating that the bullish bias remains intact.

Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) (14) has settled comfortably in a bullish range of 60.00-80.00, indicating further gains ahead.

If the round level resistance at 124.00 is breached, the asset will accelerate toward the six-year high at 125.10, followed by the one-year high at 125.86 on 1 June 2015.

On the other hand, if the yen falls below the 50-EMA at 123.00, bulls can take control of the asset. This will bring the stock back to its March 29 and 30 lows of 121.98 and 121.31, respectively.
