USD/JPY’s break of 105.05 resistance suggests that fall from 106.10 has completed at 104.02, ahead of 104.00. Intraday bias is turned back to the upside for 106.10 resistance first. On the downside, break of 104.37 will turn bias back to the downside for retesting 104.00 instead.
In the bigger picture, USD/JPY is still staying in long term falling channel that started back in 118.65 (Dec. 2016). Hence, there is no clear indication of trend reversal yet. The down trend could still extend through 101.18 low. However, sustained break of 112.22 resistance should confirm completion of the down trend and turn outlook bullish for 118.65 and above.
