The USDJPY finds a good resistance at the 114.00 level and bounces to the downside. If the pair continues dropping, then the 55 day EMA at the 112.89 level could act as support. Above the 114.00 level, its next resistance is at the 114.54 peak.

USD/JPY lost a handful of pips following the release of the FOMC minutes although lack of follow through and price clings at 113.45. The pair is currently trading in the 113.30 area and at risk of extending the slump, particularly on a break below the mentioned daily low of 113.20 that will dent bulls' determination.

The pair was indecisive yesterday and today, hitting 113.26, after the bullish momentum was dropped just under 114.20 - 114.70. Expectations are bearish for testing at 113.20/00. Resistance is 113.66 (current peak). A clear breakthrough and daily closure back over this region may take the price to a neutral zone with a retest of the strong resistance of 114.20 - 114.70, which remains a good place to sell. Downwards, a clear breakthrough and daily closure below 113.20/00 will direct the bear to the trendline support line and 112.50/00. This region remains a good place to buy.

The dollar rose to the yen on Friday. The pair USD/JPY increased by 0.07% to 113.68. In times of political or economic instability, investors prefer to invest in the yen, which is considered a defensive asset.

USD/JPY closed at 113.50 having limited potential for the upside. According to technical readings on the four hour time frame the price is barely holding above directionless moving averages, while the RSI aims marginally higher around 54 but the Momentum maintains the sour tone below its mid-line. Nevertheless, and as long as the pair holds above 113.20, the risk is skewed to the upside.

Funny less than a year later about 11 months exactly USD/JPY is @ 113.586 but has pierced the .640-.660 earlier today. Will it go up?

I do not think so. I am bearish on USDJPY. Price will probably range for the next month but I am only looking for shorts

It's still truly ranging, if US has positive PMI & good speeches from FOMC Blainard & Kaplan it should be a slight gain. I'm more of a short term trader so I don't hold positions for long terms.

The USDJPY has been very volatily and breaks above the 55 day EMA to reach a high around the 113.22 level. To the upside, the 114.00 level could still act as a resistance and below the 55 day EMA, its next support could be the 112.00 level.

Definitely think it'll test the 114 atleast once or twice in the next few hours. With positive USD job reports tomorrow & positive sentiment with speeches tomorrow and we can crack the 114 & trade slightly higher in the lower 114. JPY just released some good reports with foreign investment so we see it taking the pair a bit lower than 113.

I agree. Let's see if our expectations are justified.

I am bearish on USDJPY but will wait for jobs report before taking any more trades. If there is good result then as you say price could be back up to 114

Right so far a soft start for USD with so far neg reports less if it picks up or continues.

The USDJPY breaks below the 55 day EMA at the 112.96 level and falls to the 112.22 level. But at the moment, the USDJPY is leaving behind a long lower shadow on the daily chart, indicating that the bulls may be taking control of the market.

Dismal reports has USD bearish but not truly feeling it on USD/JPY as bad as USD/CAD, EUR/USD, & GBP/USD.

I'd say it's still on track for the last hike of the year & remember Jap had some mixed reports themselves yesterday that missed some market expectations. I'll say let's see what this OPEC meeting looks like and if it causes more people to flock towards the safe haven yen.

If the price brokes 114.00 level, the most probable level to reach will be 118.00

After the 114.00 level on the USDJPY, its next resistance could be the high at the 114.54 level, but yes, it could reach the 118.00 zone. Below the 55 day EMA at the 113.00 level, its next support could be the 112.00 level.

It's possible for us to upswing back into the 114 range today or get close to with USD reports being bullish.

Elliottwave Analysis: USDJPY, Sell at market

USDJPY still consolidated in the triangle.
According to my own trend following system, we have weekly sell signal, but still in buy mode on daily chat, overall neutral bias.
From an Elliottwave perspective, an ABC correction toward 111.06 is still likely.
On big picture, we still could not rule out the slowly right shoulder building progress.
We'll try a tactical short here and look to add or reduce when the trend confirmed.

USDJPY Trade Idea: (Spot 113.42)
Sell @ market SL 114.80 Take Profit @ 111.10
