USD/JPY weekly chart, January 16, 2016

The USD/JPY pair broke down during the week, and even managed to get below the 115 handle. However, we are starting to see a significant amount of support here, so I think the market is going to try to build a bit of a floor in this general vicinity. Because of this, I still prefer the upside but I think we may need to bounce around or chop around a bit before we can hang onto a position. You may be better served off of daily charts currently.
