USDJPY remains inside its recent range despite Tuesday’s downside. The pair still appears vulnerable and resistance at 149.71, the Oct 24 high, remains intact. A deeper pullback would refocus attention on the 50-day EMA at 144.81. This average is a key support and clearance of it would signal scope for a deeper retracement. Note that momentum studies are still pointing down. For bulls, a break of 149.71 would be a positive development.
