The USDJPY trend outlook is unchanged and conditions remain bullish. The pair is also trading closer to its recent highs. The latest pause appears to be a bull flag formation. A resumption of the trend would open 151.91/95, the Nov 13 ‘23 high and the Oct 1 ‘22 high and major resistance. On the downside, initial firm support lies at 149.41, the 20-day EMA. A break would signal scope for a correction towards 148.02, the 50-day EMA.
