USD/JPY fell on Friday as traders sold off the Dollar in general. The pair did bounce towards the end of the session though, and the resulting candle for the session was a hammer. The lows are getting higher, so this pair looks like it wants to rise over time, but the 78.50 area above is massively resistive.

In the mean time, we are waiting for rallies that show weakness to sell.
