Technical Analysis
Daily bias in USD/JPY remains bearish with 110.9611 resistances intact. A deeper decline is expected for the pair as long as resistance holds the area and the price action stays below resistances. At the end of the week, such a decline is viewed as a correction. Thus, we’d expect resistance to hold the area and pair remains bearish with break of 110.338 indicating a near term bearish reversal to take place, and turning the outlook to continue with the downside bias.
The price action signals a pin bar reversal bearish movement rejection at resistance area, thus closing below the break of trend line. Stochastic oscillator on the other hand is currently at 80.0 levels and pair closed below the rejection of trend line there is clear indication of trend reversal shifting the momentum. Current development suggests that the medium term downside is expected for a further low and focus shall be at 108.646. A break here should make lower lows at 107.489 levels. Outlook remains bearish for the week.
