USDJPY traded firmer early Wednesday, but faded into US hours. Despite recent gains, the pair appears vulnerable and attention remains on the key support at 108.72, Aug 4 low. A breach of this level would strengthen a bearish case and expose 108.47, a Fibonacci retracement. For bulls, key near-term resistance is unchanged at 110.80, Aug 11 high. A breach would ease bearish concerns and instead open key resistance at 111.66, Jul 2 high.
