USD/JPY technical Analysis: Breaks below an ascending trend-line despite risk-on mood

   “¢   Despite improving risk-sentiment, the pair struggled to build on its recovery move from flash crash lows and faced rejection near 100-hour SMA.

   “¢   Sustained breakthrough ascending trend-line support, held since the last Asian session on Thursday and was seen as a key trigger for bearish traders.  

   “¢   Technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have already started gaining negative momentum, further reinforcing the intraday bearish breakdown.  

   “¢   A follow-through weakness below 50-hour SMA might turn the pair vulnerable to resume its prior depreciating slide and retest support near mid-107.00.
