USDJPY resistance is at the last Tuesday's 106.98 high and represents an
important short-term hurdle for bulls. The underlying bearish trend remains
intact and the focus is on initial support at 105.66, the Aug 14 low ahead of
the key 105.05/00 level. From a Japanese candle perspective however, the bullish
engulfing pattern on Aug 8 signals a potential base. A break above 106.98
however is required to validate this pattern.
