USDJPY continues to trade below recent highs. The uptrend is intact though and short-term weakness is considered corrective. This is allowing an overbought condition to unwind. Last week’s climb reinforces the primary uptrend and attention is on 145.00 where a break would also strengthen current conditions. This would open 145.28 and 146.03, Fibonacci projections. Firm trend support is 139.75, the 20-day EMA.
