The USDJPY currency pair is displaying consistent signs of weakening, moving within a bearish channel over the past several sessions. This pattern suggests a prevailing selling pressure in the market, with prices consistently staying below critical resistance levels.

Technical indicators further reinforce this bearish outlook. The 24-period Moving Average (MA) indicates a downward slope, signaling a sustained downtrend. Meanwhile, the MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) is positioned in the negative zone, with a histogram showing continued weakening, adding to the confidence that the bearish momentum remains dominant.
