USDJPY pushed higher again ahead of the close Wednesday to extend this week's bounce. The pair has this week defined a firm support at 104.00, the Monday low, and this level also represents a near-term bear trigger. A resumption of weakness and clearance of 104.00 would open 103.80 and 103.51, both Fibonacci projections. The Mar 12 low of 103.09 has also appeared on the radar. 105.44 is the next resistance, Sep 16 high.
