USDJPY is unchanged. The trend condition remains bullish and attention is on key resistance at the top of a bull channel drawn from the Jan 16 low. The line intersects at 141.30 today. A clear break of this hurdle would reinforce a bullish theme and open 141.61, the Nov 23 2022 high. For bears, a strong reversal lower would instead highlight a potential top and signal scope for a deeper pullback inside the channel. Support is at 138.80, the 20-day EMA.
