PRISM's latest public USD/JPY forecast, issued Wed 11 Nov 2026, 22:00 UTC, puts the central expected close at 159.847 by Fri 13 Nov, 22:00 UTC (+0.04% from 159.776), with an 80% range of 158.818 to 160.842. The expected move is too small to point either way, and this is a probabilistic model forecast, not a prediction or advice: about one close in five is expected to land outside the range.
The US dollar against the Japanese yen. The difference between US and Japanese interest rates is the main driver, and the yen can jump on Bank of Japan surprises or official intervention.

The forecast for USD/JPY issued on Wed 11 Nov 2026, 22:00 UTC started from 159.776 (Japanese yen per US dollar). Its central expected close at the end of the 48-hour horizon, Fri 13 Nov 2026, 22:00 UTC, is 159.847, a change of +0.04%. The 80% range for that close runs from 158.818 to 160.842 — about ±0.63% around the start; in the model's own simulation, eight closes in ten land inside it. The expected move is smaller than a tenth of that half-width, so the forecast reads as about flat: it does not point either way. 53% of the 256 simulated paths ended above the start, which is within the ±6 points of 50% that the model treats as no clear edge.

Each forecast is scored only after its exact 48-hour window has closed and every hourly candle has been observed, against the close of the final hour. No substitute closing candle is used. The scored forecasts are the ones issued on the hour and their 48-hour windows overlap, so 50 issues cover only about 8 days of market moves — these numbers swing a lot and say little on their own. Direction is scored only for up/down calls; “about flat” calls count only for the range.

The newest 30 of 132 scored forecasts are listed; the summary covers the newest 50.
Earlier archive entries and briefing-tracker results are retained, but they use the previous method and do not contribute to the corrected percentages above.
Model forecasts are recorded independently of the AI news briefing. An unavailable briefing does not stop model tracking. Missing historical briefings are never reconstructed. Only a complete observed 48-hour window is scored. A window still incomplete five days after its horizon is marked unscored; no nearby candle stands in for the missing close.

Every 15 minutes while the market is open, PRISM's model reads the recent USD/JPY candles on four timeframes (15 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours and daily) and simulates 256 possible paths for the next 48 hours. This page summarises them as a central expected close and an 80% range, shown one issue behind the live forecast. Each forecast is fixed when it is issued and never revised.
Of its newest 50 scored forecasts (4 Nov – 10 Nov 2026), 26 of 50 (52%) closed inside the 80% range, against a target of 80%, and 8 of 10 up/down calls (80%) had the direction right. The central close missed the real close by 0.65% on average. Hourly forecasts overlap, so this is a small sample that can swing a lot.
It is the band that holds the middle 80% of the model's 256 simulated closes at the end of the 48 hours. If the model were perfectly calibrated, about eight closes in ten would land inside it and one in five outside; the track record on this page shows how often that actually held.
