USD / JPY Technical Forex Analysis for Forex Traders

Dollar-Yen is approaching Fibonacci resistance 91.70, at this very moment, for the third time, and we could see a break in the next few hours, especially after breaking the falling trend channel on Friday, and closing above it. After this break, the most important resistance became 92.07, which is the level that the price should break to show seriousness in breaking the channel.

If we manage to surpass it, more upside action is to be expected, reaching, or at least approaching the resistance area 92.70-92.80. Today's short-term support is provided by the rising trendline from Wednesday's low, which is currently at 91.31, and breaking it would be evidence of weakness, and moving to areas below 90, where some targets await, the first of which is the support area 89.68-89.78. We do not see USDJPY free from pressure without breaking 92.07.

Support:

• 91.31: the rising trendline from Wednesday's low.

• 90.71: intraday support/resistance from last week.

• 89.68/78: important support area containing the lows of Feb 11th, 12th & Dec 29th 08.

Resistance:

• 92.07: Fibonacci 61.8% for the last move falling from 93.28, the most important resistance for today.

• 92.70-92.80: previous support area which contains a number of daily lows in the past few months.

• 93.28: Sep 7th high.
