USDJPY is consolidating. The pair maintains a bullish outlook despite struggling to hold onto recent gains. A firm support has been defined at 108.34, May 7 low. Attention is on 109.96, Apr 9 high with potential for a climb above 110.00. Note that the recovery May 12 means trendline support drawn off the Jan 6 low remains intact. The trendline however remains under pressure. A break of 108.34 would signal a reversal.
