Technical outlook The USD/JPY is trading lower in range, with the risk skewed to the downside in the 4-hour chart, as the price remains below a flat 20 simple moving average while technical indicators head south within negative levels according to Valeria Bednarik, Chief Analyst at FXStreet. “The downside potential seems limited, with an immediate support at 108.90, and the next one at 108.65. It will be below this last that the pair would have chances of declining further”, Bednarik added.
