USD/JPY Technical Analysis: USD/JPY bulls advancing and testing July highs at 113.18 resistance

  • USD/JPY bulls want to extend the bull trend as they are challenging the July high.
  • The 50, 100 and 200-period simple moving average on the 4-hour time frame are rising and widening suggesting a bullish momentum. However, counter-trend traders are currently preventing the market to break above 113.18 July high. A clear breakout above the level would open the door to 114.00 figure and 114.80 (November 2017 high). 
  • However, in the absence of a sustained breakout above 113.18, bears have a fair chance to drive the market down near 112.00 figure.
