USD/JPY Technical Analysis: 112.17 brick wall can see USD/JPY rotate back to 111.00 figure

  • USD/JPY main bull trend is on hold.  
  • USD/JPY is facing resistance at the 112.17 level (August 1, swing high) as the RSI, MACD and Stochastics indicators are decelerating. A failure to break above 112.17 should lead to a rotation down towards 111.54 (August 6, high) and 111.00 figure.  
  • A sustained bull breakout above 112.17 would invalidate the short-term bearish bias.
