Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains on the upside for 149.12 resistance. Decisive break there should confirm that correction from 150.90 has completed at 145.47. Rise from 139.87 should be ready to resume through 150.90. On the downside, though, below 147.45 support will turn intraday bias neutral again.
In the bigger picture, price actions from 161.94 (2024 high) are seen as a corrective pattern to rise from 102.58 (2021 low). Decisive break of 61.8% retracement of 158.86 to 139.87 at 151.22 will argue that it has already completed with three waves at 139.87. Larger up trend might then be ready to resume through 161.94 high. In case the corrective pattern extends with another fall, strong support is expected from 38.2% retracement of 102.58 to 161.94 at 139.26 to bring rebound.
