*SUP 4: Y110.29 Hourly resistance Sept 15 now support
*COMMENTARY: The NY close above the Y111.33 level adds support to the bullish
case and sees focus now on the 200-DMA. Bulls now look for a close above the
200-DMA to shift initial focus to July highs (Y114.49) and overall focus to 2017
highs (Y118.61). Initial support is noted at Y111.33 but bears look for a close
below Y110.99 to ease bullish pressure and below Y110.62 to shift initial focus
back to Y109.55. The Bollinger top (Y111.55) is the key concern for bulls.
