USDJPY traded softer Wednesday and made only a tepid bounce Thursday, making
further weakness still likely near-term. Last week, support at 106.80, Jun 26
low was breached reinforcing the current bearish tone. The break has also
exposed the key support zone at 106.07/105.99. Clearance of this area would
represent an important bearish break. On the upside, firm short-term resistance
is at 107.79, Jul 7 high. Initial resistance though is 107.43, Jul 14 high.
