USD/JPY trades a narrow range on the day 121.48/10, consolidating after the massive spike post BoJ surprise rate decision on Friday.
The pair has strong resistance by 200-DMA (currently at 121.46), further gains likely on breaks above.
Price action has entered the daily cloud, with cloud base at 120.90 seen as strong support.
Momentum is still higher, strength seen in RSI which is currently at 64 with room to run, however Stochs in overbought territory warrant caution.
Breaks above 121.46 could see test of 122.09 (78.6% Fib retrace of 123.76 to 115.97 fall).
On the downside immediate support is seen at 120.90 (cloud base), and further below at 120.84 (Dec 21 lows) and then at 120.58 (double bottom Dec 11th and 15th).
Recommendation: Good to go long on breaks above 121.46, SL: 120.90, TP: 122
