FxWirePro: USD/JPY pauses at weekly 200-MA 108.43, break above to target 109.25

  • USD/JPY has broken above 200-DMA to take out 108 levels on Monday's trade. 
     
  • The major has paused upside after hitting highs of 108.54, highest since June 3rd 2016.
     
  • 108.43 which is weekly 200-MA is stiff resistance for the pair, breakout above could see resumption of upside.
     
  • We see some consolidation around weekly 200-MA at 108.43.
     
  • Our previous call (http://www.econotimes.com/FxWirePro-USD-JPY-breaks-above-200-DMA-bias-bullish-stay-long-398666) has achieved all targets.
     
  • Major support is seen at 106.46 (200-DMA), while 108.43 (weekly 200-MA) is major resistance.
     

Recommendation: Good to go long on breakout above 108.43, target 109/ 109.25 levels.
