USDJPY is trading lower today, extending the pullback from Tuesday's cycle high of 147.37. The move down is considered corrective, however, the break of support at the 20-day EMA suggests potential for a deeper retracement. This has opened the 50-day EMA, at 143.22. On the upside, key resistance and the bull trigger has been defined at 147.37. A resumption of gains and a break of 147.37, would confirm a resumption of the uptrend.
