USD/JPY recovers further today but stays well below 108.80 resistance. Intraday bias remains neutral and further decline is still expected. On the downside, break of 106.78 temporary low will resume the fall from 112.40 to retest 104.69 low.
In the bigger picture, decline from 118.65 (Dec 2016) is still in progress, with the pair staying inside long term falling channel. Break of 104.62 will target 100% projection of 118.65 to 104.62 from 114.54 at 100.51. For now, we’d expect strong support above 98.97 (2016 low) to contain downside to bring rebound.
