USD/JPY Analysis
The strong rise in the USD over the past couple of days has pushed this pair below the lower trend line of its previous consolidating triangle. There is a new resistance level very close to the broken trend line that is likely to provide excellent support if it will be re-tested.
The whole number at 0.7600 has provided some local support but this is unlikely to last. The price can be expected now to proceed down. There are no obviously supportive levels close by but the psychological number at 0.7500 has a good chance of producing a moderate bullish bounce.
There are no high-impact events scheduled today concerning the USD, but there will be a release of Australian Employment Change and Unemployment Rate data at 00:30 London time which may affect the AUD.
