USD/JPY - 107.70.. Despite resumption of recent decline to a 2-week low of 106.97 Tue, dlr met buying interest in Asia at 107.01 n ratcheted higher to 107.42, then later to session highs of 107.88 in NY on usd's strength.

Looking at the bigger picture, dlr's fall fm 118.66 (Dec 2016) to 107.27. in 2017 (Sep) confirms uptrend fm 2016 29-month bottom at 99.00 has made a top. Despite a strg rise fm 2018 16-month bottom at 104.57 to 114.55 in Oct, subsequent flash crash to a 9-month low at 104.79 in early Jan suggests correction is over. Despite dlr's corrective rise to a 4-month high at 112.39 in Apr, dlr's break of said 2019 low to a 33-month trough of 104.46 in late Aug would pressure price twd 103.71 but 102.72 would hold this month. Having said that, subsequent cross-inspired strg rise to 108.47 last week confirms temporary low is made, rec kon 109.31 (Aug top) should hold. Below 106.73 signals top, risks 105.75.

Today, dlr's decline fm 108.47 to 106.97 (Tue) confirms recent upmove fm 104.46 (Aug) has made a top, however, y'day's rally to 107.88 signals 1st leg of correction over n range trading with upside bias is seen, a daily close abv 108. 02 suggests correction over, 108.26, then 108.47. Below 107.26 risks 106.97.
