[Free Method Access] Key points for USD/JPY scalping tonight 2025/5/19
This is Tomizaki from the Trading Office.
【5/19 Dollar/Yen Scalp Points】
Good work today! Now, let’s do some USD/JPY scalping again tonight!
First, from today’s Tokyo time overview.
Currently, USD/JPY is around 145.25. This morning it started around 145.30, but during Tokyo hours the upside faced selling pressure, and after 10 a.m. Japan time it fell to around 144.80.
As for the reasons, Moody’s downgrade of the U.S. credit rating last weekend seems to have degraded investor sentiment. However, the downgrade itself wasn’t a surprise, and it is not expected that USD selling and JPY buying will accelerate afterwards, but what do you think?
It seems the market will switch to overseas time at roughly the morning levels.
Now, the points for tonight’s USD/JPY scalping.
● Movements around 16:00 London market open
● Movements around 22:00 New York market open (Dow opens at 22:30)
● Movements after the release of the U.S. leading indicators at 23:00
—–
● Be cautious of U.S. official remarks
● Be cautious of headlines related to the Trump administration
For tonight’s 1-minute chart scalping, the idea is to add profit from the market open around each session and from the 23:00 U.S. leading indicators release. For users of the “1-Minute Scalping Club,” if you handle it according to the theory, there should be no problem.
Also, the 15-minute scalp for shorts, which focuses on the yen-buying tendency due to Moody’s downgrade last weekend, seems to offer opportunities. If it can sell around the 145 mid-level, we will enter.
With that, overseas hours will begin shortly!
