USDJPY is unchanged. The trend outlook remains bullish and the pair is trading closer to its recent trend highs. Attention is on the 150.00 handle and the recent 150.16 high (Oct 3). A clear break of 150.00 would reinforce bullish conditions and open 150.40, a Fibonacci projection. On the downside, clearance of 147.43, the Oct 3 low, would be a bearish development and signal scope for a deeper retracement.
