USDJPY sold off sharply yesterday but has thus far found support around the

76.4% retracement of the Jun 25-Jul 10 rally at 107.30. To reverse this weeks

selling pressure, USDJPY needs to get back above resistance at 108.38, the high

of Jul 17. This would be encouraging for bulls and open a return to 108.99

resistance. Further intraday weakness however would expose key support at 106.78

that also represents the key bear trigger.
