The USDJPY trend outlook is unchanged and remains bullish. However, Friday’s move lower suggests that a deeper corrective pullback is likely. The pair has traded well below support at 135.37 and has shown below the 50-day EMA, which intersects at 134.23. A clear break of this average would strengthen a bearish threat. On the upside, the bull trigger is at 137.91, the Mar 8 high.
