Main scenario: consider long positions from corrections above the level of 145.98 with a target of 152.50 – 155.00.
Alternative scenario: breakout and consolidation below the level of 145.98 will allow the pair to continue declining to the levels of 143.29 – 140.17.
Analysis: an ascending wave of larger degree C continues forming on the daily chart, with the fifth wave (5) of C unfolding as its part. On the H4 chart, wave 1 of (5) was formed, and a downside correction was completed as second wave 2 of (5). The third wave 3 of (5) started forming, with the first wave of smaller degree i of 3 unfolding as its part. Apparently, wave (iii) of i and wave (iv) of i are formed on the H1 chart. If the presumption is correct, the USDJPY pair will continue to rise to the levels of 152.50 – 155.00. The level of 145.98 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue falling to the levels of 143.29 – 140.17.
