The USD/JPY is being pushed towards next resistance by the backwind of risk on sentiment that is currently dominating the Forex market. When risk-on sentiment is prevailing Gold goes down, Commodities are up, Equities are up and Yen weakens as a result. Adding to that is a Bullish SHS (head and shoulders) pattern that signifies now moment buyers. 110.45-70 is the POC zone and if the price retraces we might see another bounce to the upside towards 111.40. A spike above or 4h close above 111.40 could make a breakout on the price towards 111.70 and 112.05. A daily close above 112.00 could push the pair up to 112.58-74. The bullish sentiment might weaken if the pair drops and closes below the low of SHS pattern 109.54.
