Breach of 110.85 minor support argues that USD/JPY’s recovery from 110.23 is finished at 112.12, after failing to sustain above 4 hour 55 EMA and 55 day EMA. Intraday bias is turned back to the downside to 110.23 first. Break will extend the fall from 114.36 to 108.12 low and below. Note again that decline from 118.65 is seen as a correction. In that bearish case, we’ll look for bottoming signal again at 61.8% retracement of 98.97 to 118.65 at 106.48. On the upside, above 111.46 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral again first.
In the bigger picture, price actions from 125.85 high are seen as a corrective pattern. It’s uncertain whether it’s completed yet. But in case of another fall, downside should be contained by 61.8% retracement of 75.56 to 125.85 at 94.77 to bring rebound. Overall, rise from 75.56 is still expected to resume later after the correction from 125.85 completes.
