USD/JPY technical analysis: Contracting triangle breakout may pave way for 110.00

  • USD/JPY has charted a contracting triangle on the hourly chart.  
  • Triangle breakout would signal a continuation of the recovery from recent lows near 109.00.  

USD/JPY pair has created a contracting triangle on the hourly chart.  

A move above 109.68 would confirm triangle breakout or resumption of the corrective bounce from the recent low of 109.02 and allow a test of supply around the psychological resistance of 110.00.  

The bullish divergence of the 4-hour chart relative strength index (RSI) also indicates scope for a rise to 110.00.  

The bullish case, however, would weaken if the contracting triangle is breached to the downside. That, however, looks unlikely with the equities flashing green.
