USDJPY traded higher Friday and remains above its most recent low. However, short-term gains are considered corrective. Bears remain in the driver’s seat and the pair traded to a fresh cycle low last week. The recent breach of key support at 141.70, the Aug 5 low, confirms a resumption of the downtrend. Sights are on 139.00 next, a Fibonacci projection. The 20-day EMA has been breached, the next key resistance is 147.12, the 50-day EMA.
