Daily analysis
USDJPY holding below the 100 month MA resistance at 108.90/109.00 is more negative for this week. However we bottomed exactly at the 2021 ascending trend line support at 108.40/35. A break below 108.25 therefore should be a sell signal this week initially targeting 107.80/70 & 107.20/10.
The pair topped exactly at first resistance at 1083.90/109.00. Shorts need stops above 109.20. A break higher targets 109.70/80.
EURJPY finally beat 16 month trend line resistance at 131.50/70 to retest the April high at 132.30/40. WE TOPPED EXACTLY HERE. A break higher looks likely (eventually, we do not know when) targeting 6 year trend line resistance at 133.05/25. Shorts need stops above 133.55.
Strong support at 131.80/70. Longs need stops below 131.50. A break lower to targets 131.10/00.
