USD/JPY
Strategy: Pending Short
We initially suggested three weeks ago that a bullish USDJPY correction was on the way after seeing positive RSI divergence ahead of the major double bottom at in the 87.09-88.23 region. As expected, prices broke resistance at the top of a channel established from the August swing, tested just above the 92.00 level, and reversed lower. The correction has been guided by a minor rising channel; the pair has put in a Piercing Line bullish candlestick formation at the bottom of this channel, suggesting that another move toward 92.00 is possible before bearish momentum resumes in earnest. We will remain on the sidelines for now as an attractive entry opportunity presents itself.
