USDJPY found support Tuesday, however, short-term gains are considered corrective. Bears remain in the driver’s seat and the pair has once again traded to a fresh cycle low this week. The recent breach of key support at 141.70, the Aug 5 low, confirms a resumption of the downtrend and maintains the price sequence of lower lows and lower highs. Sights are on 139.00 next, a Fibonacci projection. Firm resistance is 143.81, 20-day EMA.
