FX:USDJPY   U.S. Dollar / Japanese Yen
7
USD/JPY bounces back after testing support at 100.042 levels but these upswings restrained at 21DMA & resistance of 101.747 levels.

Despite jump above 7DMA and the bullish momentum, the pair doesn't seem to clear resistance and it seems to have appeared a shooting star pattern.

On a broader perspective, the trend moving in sideways as the bears holding stronger at 103.909 levels, the major downtrend still remains intact as the price declines in the sloping channel.

While on monthly terms stiff resistance is seen at 103.909 levels and ongoing upside potential of this pair on daily terms is capped at 21DMA, but intraday sentiments are still mildly bullish bias.

Leading indicators converge to the prevailing price upswings, RSI is spiking higher above 46 levels and %K crossover above 20 levels on slow stochastic curves but it is contrary on the monthly terms. 

7EMA crosses below 21EMA on monthly terms, price dips are consistently below EMAs and in conformity to leading & lagging indicators and massive volumes.

Downside equally holds strong support at 100.042 mark, the break below could see the retest of recent lows of 100 and below targets.
