Daily Pivots: (S1) 105.85; (P) 106.53; (R1) 106.90; More…
USD/JPY’s medium term decline from 118.65 resumed by breaking 105.54 and reaches as low as 105.24 so far. Intraday bias remains on the downside for 100% projection of 118.65 to 108.12 from 114.73 at 104.20 next. Firm break there will target 98.97 key support level. On the upside, above 106.37 minor resistance will turn bias neutral first. But outlook will remain bearish as long as 107.67 resistance holds.
In the bigger picture, current development argues that the corrective pattern from 118.65 is extending. The solid break of 61.8% retracement of 98.97 to 118.65 at 106.48 now suggests that the pattern from 125.85 high is possibly extending. Deeper fall could be seen through 98.97 key support (2016 low). This bearish case will now be favored as long as 110.47 resistance holds.
