USD/JPY Technical Analysis: 4H 100-period EMA is the level to beat for the bulls
|- Currently, the USD/JPY is chipping away at the 4H 100-period EMA of 112.61.
- The EMA struggled to find acceptance above that EMA last Wednesday and fell back to 112.00 the next day.
- Hence, the 100-period EMA is the level to beat for the bulls. A sustained break above that level would signal a continuation of the recovery rally from the Oct. 15 low of 111.62 and would open up upside toward 113.18 (July 19 high).
