Daily Pivots: (S1) 155.75; (P) 156.03; (R1) 156.56; More…
No change in USD/JPY’s outlook and intraday bias stays neutral. Price actions from 160.20 are seen as a corrective pattern. On the upside, break of 156.78 will resume the rise from 151.86, as the second leg, to 100% projection of 151.86 to 156.78 from 153.59 at 158.51. On the downside, below 153.59 will target 151.86 and below as the third leg.
In the bigger picture, a medium term top might be formed at 160.20. But as long as 150.87 resistance turned support holds, fall from there is seen as correcting rise from 150.25 only. However, decisive break of 150.87 will argue that larger correction is possibly underway, and target 146.47 support next.
