2026/03/16 USD/JPY Trade Strategy 15-minute chart

Today's USD/JPY call: Sell.

The 4-hour chart (H4) and higher timeframes are a buy, but it looks like the market may correct for a while.
For day trading I’m looking to sell, and if momentum fades from around the current price, it seems fine to start selling.

So this is a sell strategy aiming for the drop down to the pullback on the 4-hour chart (H4).

It played out as Scenario B.

Price kept rising without losing momentum around Line B, so the trade was a short from the red circle, where a double top formed near Line A at the range high.
The risk-reward is good, so it’s an easy spot to enter.

Take profit where price touched the 159 target and formed a lower wick. 44 pips

After that, you could also look for another short on the retracement near the blue line.

Estimated pips for this day +44.0 PIPS
