The USDJPY short-term bearish threat remains in place and the pair continues to trade lower. Today's weakness has resulted in a test of key short-term support at 112.73, Nov 9 low and a potential reversal trigger. A clear break would open 112.08 next, a recent breakout level. On the upside, initial resistance is seen at 114.12, the 20-day EMA. A break would ease the bearish threat. Key resistance though is at 115.52, the Nov 24 high.
