USD/JPY Technical Analysis: USD/JPY bulls finding some support at 111.00 figure looking at 111.50 level

  • USD/JPY main bull trend is in pullback mode since July 19. On August 21, bulls created a swing low and are now trying to resume the bull trend.
  • USD/JPY is trying to find support at the lower trendline of the bull channel around the 111.00 level. However, the 50 and 100-period simple moving average broke below the 200 SMA suggesting that the bullish momentum is slowing down. Targets to the upside are 111.45 and 111.54-111.64 area.
  • A bear breakout below 110.90 (current daily low) would invalidate the bullish bias.
