USDJPY consolidation is seen as a pause in the uptrend with the outlook still
bullish. The recent consolidation appears to have taken on the shape of a bull
flag, reinforcing the bullish theme and the likelihood of higher prices
near-term. The focus is on a test of the 200-DMA at 109.06 where a clear break
would open 109.32, Aug 1 high and 109.93, May 30 high. The initial trigger for
gains was at 108.94, which the pair cracked Monday. Trendline support drawn off
the Aug 26 low is at 107.63.
