USDJPY is consolidating near recent lows and the short-term outlook remains bearish. The move lower on Nov 30 resulted in a print below 112.73, Nov 9 low. A clear break of this support would resume the current bear cycle and open 112.08 next, Sep 30 high. Initial resistance is seen at 113.74, the 20-day EMA. A breach would ease bearish concerns and signal a possible S/T base. Key resistance though is unchanged at 115.52, the Nov 24 high.
