USD/JPY Signal Update
Yesterday’s signals might have provided a short trade entry off the rejection of the resistance at 109.27, which would be in profit. It would probably be worthwhile to hold onto at least some of such a position, as we might have seen a major reversal back into line with the long-term trend.

USD/JPY Analysis
I forecast yesterday that it looked as if we would reach 109.00 and a little way above that there is an interesting point at around 109.25 where a turn might occur. This seems to be exactly what occurred, and we may now have a resumption of the long-term bearish trend. A further pullback making a lower high below 109.27 could also be a powerful short entry signal.
We may have seen minor support at 108.50 already put in a short-term low, however.
There are no high-impact events due today concerning the JPY. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Crude Oil Inventories at 3:30pm London time
