USD/JPY Technical Analysis: challenging 6-day long ascending trendline
|- The USD/JPY pair is flirting with the support of the trendline sloping upwards from September 6. A break lower would validate the bearish divergence of the relative strength index (RSI) and allow a deeper pullback to the 200-hour moving average (MA), currently located at 111.17.
- On the higher side, a convincing move above the previous week's high of 111.76 will likely confirm a bull breakout and open the doors to re-test of the 200-week MA of 113.26.
