Although trading near the top of its recent range, USDJPY appears to have found resistance at 105.70. A broader bearish outlook remains in place. The pair has defined a firm support at 104.00, Sep 21 low, and this level also represents a near-term bear trigger. A resumption of weakness and clearance of 104.00 would open 103.80 and 103.51, both Fibonacci projections. On the upside, gains above 105.70 would instead expose 105.95, the 50-day EMA.
