After starting the week positively, USDJPY retreated from the 108.48 resistance
as a dire ISM number dragged the greenback lower. The broader technical picture
though is unchanged and the focus remains on the Sep 18 high of 108.48.
Clearance of this level would reinforce the overall bullish tone and pave the
way for a climb towards open 109.00 and 109.32. On the downside, key support
remains at 106.96, Sep 24 low.
