Intraday bias in USD/JPY is turned neutral with 4H MACD crossed above signal line. But further decline is expected as long as 147.20 resistance holds. Decisive break of 141.67 will resume whole decline from 161.95 high. Next target will be 140.25 support.
In the bigger picture, fall from 161.94 medium term top is seen as correcting whole up trend from 102.58 (2021 low). Deeper decline could be seen to 38.2% retracement of 102.58 to 161.94 at 139.26, which is close to 140.25 support. In any case, risk will stay on the downside as long as 55 W EMA (now at 149.21) holds. Nevertheless, firm break of 55 W EMA will suggest that the range for medium term corrective pattern is already set.
