USDJPY traded lower Thursday resulting in a clear break of 104.00 - the first move through that mark since March's Coronavirus fallout. The first notable level provided little support at the 76.4% retracement of the Mar 9-24 rally at 103.67. This keeps the outlook resolutely bearish signalling scope for weakness within a bear channel drawn off the Mar 24 high and opening 103.09 next, Mar 12 low. Initial resistance is seen at 104.00.
