Daily Pivots: (S1) 111.02; (P) 111.60; (R1) 111.98; More….
Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains neutral for the moment. On the upside, break of 112.19 temporary will turn bias back to the upside for 115.49 resistance. Decisive break there should confirm completion of the correction from 118.65. In that case, further rise should be seen to 118.65 and above to resume the rally from 98.97. On the downside, though, below 110.99 minor support will turn bias back to the downside for 110.10 and break will extend the corrective fall from 118.65.
In the bigger picture, price actions from 125.85 high are seen as a corrective pattern. The impulsive structure of the rise from 98.97 suggests that the correction is completed and larger up trend is resuming. Decisive break of 125.85 will confirm and target 61.8% projection of 75.56 to 125.85 from 98.97 at 130.04 and then 135.20 long term resistance. Nonetheless, sustained trading below 55 week EMA (now at 111.16) will extend the consolidation from 125.85 with another fall through 98.97 before completion.
