Intraday bias in USD/JPY stays neutral and outlook remains bearish as long as 134.49 resistance holds. On the downside, firm break of 61.8% projection of 148.44 to 133.61 from 138.16 at 128.99 could trigger downside acceleration to 100% projection at 123.33. Nevertheless, break of 134.49 will turn bias to the upside for 138.16 resistance intact.
In the bigger picture, a medium term top was in place at 151.93. Sustained trading below 55 week EMA (now at 131.65) would raise the chance of bearish trend reversal. Deeper fall would be seen to 61.8% retracement of 102.58 to 151.93 at 121.43. This will now remain the favored case as long as 55 day EMA (now at 137.54) holds.
