USD/JPY Technical Analysis: On track to slide further towards testing 100-DMA support

   “¢   The pair finally broke down of its two-day old consolidative trading range and dropped to near one-month lows at the start of a new trading week.  

   “¢   Against the backdrop of some renewed USD selling, fragile global risk sentiment underpinned the JPY’s safe-haven status and kept exerting downward pressure.

   “¢   With short-term technical indicators on the daily chart gradually drifting into negative territory, bears are likely to aim towards challenging the 100-day SMA support.

   “¢   A sustained weakness below the mentioned support, for the first time since April, will mark a fresh bearish breakdown and open room for a further near-term depreciating move.
