USD/JPY Technical Analysis: forming a symmetrical triangle on hourly charts

   “¢   The pair has been oscillating between two converging trend-lines, forming a symmetrical triangle on the 1-hourly chart.

   “¢   Currently placed at 100-hour SMA pivot-point, subsequent up-move could get extended back towards the triangle resistance.

   “¢   Alternatively, a rejection slide would increase the pair’s vulnerability to head back towards retesting a two-week-old ascending trend-line support.
