Technical outlook:
USDJPY continued to defy resistance and pushed through fresh highs around 129.40 mark in the early Asian session on Wednesday. The currency has found resistance there and it has pulled back through 127.60 lows intraday. Probability remains for a major top in place but bears need to drag below 125.10 level to confirm.
USDJPY is seen to be trading just below the 128.00 mark at this point in writing and is expected to continue further towards 127.20 at least near term. Immediate price resistance is now seen around 129.50 levels while initial support comes in around 125.10 as labelled on the chart here. A break lower will confirm a meaningful pullback is on its way and that bears are back in control.
USDJPY was in a triangle consolidation earlier and broke out higher above 116.50 mark. It has produced a thrust wave close to 1300 pips close to 129.40 mark. A meaningful retracement should be on its way soon, which could drag prices back towards 116.35 at least, if not lower. Watch ut for a break below 125.10 in the next few trading sessions.
Trading plan:
Potential drop towards 116.35 against 130.00
Good luck!
