Daily Pivots: (S1) 146.18; (P) 146.34; (R1) 146.65; More…
Break of 147.36 resistance indicates resumption of recent rally in USD/JPY. Intraday bias is back on the upside. Current rise from 127.20 should target a test on 151.93 high. For now, near term outlook will stay bullish as long as 144.43 support holds, in case of retreat.
In the bigger picture, overall price actions from 151.93 (2022 high) are views as a corrective pattern. Rise from 127.20 is seen as the second leg of the pattern and could still be in progress. But even in case of extended rise, strong resistance should be seen from 151.93 to limit upside. Meanwhile, break of 137.22 support should confirm the start of the third leg to 127.20 (2023 low) and below.
