USDJPY is trading lower and has breached Monday’s 143.99 low. The primary trend direction remains up and short-term weakness is considered corrective. Support to watch is 142.73, the 20-day EMA and 142.14, the former bull channel top. A break of 142.14 would signal scope for a deeper correction. The bull trigger has been defined at 145.07, the Jun 30 high. A break would resume the uptrend and open 145.66, a Fibonacci projection.
