USDJPY remains in a bullish trend since the end of 2020. Price is moving steadily higher and higher. Price continues respecting key support trend line and is still making higher highs and higher lows. In our previous analysis when price was challenging the support trend line, we mentioned that this was the time to be bullish and open new long positions as the risk was minimal as price was trading very close to the stop level.

USDJPY is back near the 2021 highs around 106 which was our target from January. Support is key at the trend line at 105. A break below 105 will most probably push price towards 104 at least. Price is approaching resistance of previous highs. Trend remains bullish and I would prefer to be neutral now that we are close to resistance if not remain bullish with a higher stop. I would not bet going against the trend as price could continue higher towards 106.60.
