USD/JPY and intervention

The words to BOJ intervention is false. The new intervention since 2008 and particularly 2016 to relieve intervention costs is the manipulation of interest rates. This is exactly what the BOJ did and they informed to the drop to interest rates and USD/JPY miles in advance.

Previous to the drop, USD/JPY traded overbought from the range at 151.34 to 149.37. After the drop, the range became 149.37 to 147.40.

Shorts at 149.37 offered further downside as the drop derived from the London Fix at 149.03. How much profit was involved depends on the trader time frame. From a day trade perspective, here's USD/JPY pip numbers: 150, 75, 37, 18 and 9 pips.

USD/JPY imports and exports

For the first time since October 2022 and on a monthly basis from the currency price,  imports exceed exports. Yearly, Exports far exceeds imports. The high Oil price from Qatar at $88 per barrel and Japan's largest source of imported crude is contributed to Imports exceed exports.

The Qatar Oil price contributed -30% to Producer Prices, 33% to Exports and 74% to Imports,. From the Commodity Contractual basis, Imports at 0.6 vs Exports at 0.5 reveals how crucial a role Oil contrubutes to positive and negative imports and exports.

The bottom line is the BOJ is subject to intervemve anytime. If the Fed raises then added pressure contributes to a higher USD/JPY to fuel greater problems to the BOJ's Export and import lines. The BOJ desperately requires a lower USD/JPY under current circumstances.

Higher import lines translates to higher Inflation and lower GDP.

As stated all year, outside events is the catalyst to drop USD/JPY as the BOJ and the economic system continues to work perfectly. The Oil price is the stimulant from putside forces to add ammunition to a lower USD/JPY.

For the first time since October 2022, pay heed to  BOJ speakers for the next month until November 12th.
