Short-term trend conditions in USDJPY remain bearish, with Monday’s corrective rally fading into the Tuesday close. The recent move higher is allowing a recent oversold trend condition to unwind. Resistance to watch is at 143.62, the 50-day EMA. A break of this EMA would signal scope for a stronger correction. On the downside, a break of 137.68, Nov 15 low, would resume the downtrend and open 137.37, the Aug 29 low.
