Understanding USD/JPY
USD/JPY moves with the macroeconomic differential between USD and JPY: central-bank monetary policy, inflation data (CPI, PCE), employment, trade balance and capital flows. Major reversals are often accompanied by a rotation in institutional positioning visible in the weekly COT report. Realized volatility varies by session, peaking during the London–New York overlap for the most liquid pairs.
