USD/JPY drops sharply in early US session but it’s staying in range above 110.23 and intraday bias remains neutral. More consolidation cannot be ruled out. But upside should be limited by 61.8% retracement of 114.36 to 110.23 at 112.78 to bring fall resumption. Below 110.23 will turn bias to the downside and will likely resume the fall from 118.65 through 108.12 low. As fall from 118.65 is seen as a correction, we’ll look for bottoming signal again at 61.8% retracement of 98.97 to 118.65 at 106.48. However, sustained break of 112.78 will turn focus back to 114.36 resistance instead.
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.
