USD/JPY Technical Analysis: Greenback bulls aligning in front of the 113.00 resistance

  • USD/JPY is trading in a bull trend above the 200-period simple moving average.  
  • USD/JPY bulls objective is to break above 113.00 resistance. Technical indicators remain in positive territories suggesting bullish continuation. However, the bulls will need to overcome the 100-perios simple moving average (SMA) to continue their move up.
  • A break below 112.00 would likely invalidate the current bullish bias.
