USDJPY traded higher Monday. The short-term outlook is bullish and the pair remains in a corrective cycle, following the recovery from 133.63, the Dec 2 low. This is allowing a recent oversold trend reading to unwind and attention is on 138.60, the 20-day EMA. This average marks the first key short-term resistance. On the downside, the bear trigger is unchanged at 133.63. A break would resume the downtrend.
