USDJPY – High 156.43 – 26th February 2026
On 26th February 2026, USDJPY registered a notable intraday high at 156.43, marking a critical resistance zone within its medium-term bullish structure.
Daily Chart
The advance into 156.43 coincided with strong bullish momentum, with the RSI near 69, firmly in overbought territory. Price action printed an upper shadow, reflecting profit-taking pressure at the highs. The test of this level aligned with the broader uptrend but highlighted potential exhaustion.
4-Hour Chart
On the 4H timeframe, the rally into 156.43 was accompanied by expanding bullish candles, but momentum indicators began to diverge. The MACD histogram showed reduced bullish acceleration, with signal lines flattening. The Stochastic Oscillator was firmly overbought, reinforcing the likelihood of short-term exhaustion. The rejection at 156.43 highlighted supply pressure and the potential for corrective retracement.
Key Levels
• Support: 155.80 (minor demand zone), 155.20 (structural base, prior consolidation floor)
• Resistance: 156.43 (intraday high, immediate supply), 157.00 (psychological barrier, Fibonacci 50% retracement of prior decline)
Market Implications
The high at 156.43 underscored USDJPY’s struggle to break through medium-term resistance. Sustained closes above this level would open the path toward 157.00, while failure to maintain momentum could trigger a pullback toward 155.80 and 155.20.
