It should be said that the pair has climbed three times straight, unable to conquer 148.00, seen as the first key resistance level. From a momentum standpoint, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) hints that buyers remain in control, but the index is headed towards bearish territory.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, the USD\/JPY first resistance would be the 20-day SMA and 148.00. If surpassed, the next stop would be August\u2019s 12 peak at 148.51, before traders challenge the 200-day SMA at 149.15. On the flip side, if the pair slides below 147.50, the immediate support would be 147.00, followed by the 50-day SMA at 146.63.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"fxs_headline_from_medium_to_large\">USD\/JPY Price Chart \u2013 Daily\u00a0<\/h2>\n<div class=\"post-module\">\n<div id=\"content-module-currencyprices-JPY-616\" data-type=\"currencyprices\" data-module=\"currencyprices\" data-config-topic=\"JPY\" data-config-asset=\"JPY\" data-config-criteria=\"Strongest\" data-config-period=\"ThisWeek\" data-config-currencies=\"USD,EUR,GBP,JPY,CAD,AUD,NZD,CHF\" data-config-quotes=\"1.171365:1.16481,1.3554:1.349115,1.15706:1.158225,0.006795:0.006775,0.0058:0.005815,0.005008:0.005022,0.72378:0.721135,0.617885:0.619105,0.53402:0.53453,106.542:106.442,0.651035:0.6455,0.55586:0.554165,0.480405:0.478465,95.8295:95.279,0.899225:0.89505,0.59248:0.58956,0.50565:0.5061,0.437015:0.437,87.218:87.0225,0.81859:0.8176,0.90967:0.91334,1.241359:1.238178,1.059786:1.062987,0.915535:0.917765,182.6895:182.758,1.71445:1.716955,1.905762:1.918651,2.09439:2.10012\" data-version=\"v1\" data-content-module-translate=\"0\" class=\"fxs-major-currency-prices-wrapper\">\n<h2 class=\"fxs-major-currency-prices-title\">Japanese Yen PRICE This week<\/h2>\n<p class=\"fxs-major-currency-prices-content\">The table below shows the percentage change of Japanese Yen (JPY) against listed major currencies this week.
