USDJPY | Perspective for the new week | follow-up details

This is a follow-up video to last week's analysis on the USDJPY which scooped over 850 pips in profit to start the year on a profitable note (see link below for reference purposes). The US Dollar started the year on a positive note as it climbed up to test the 135.000 level before selling pressure resumed following the NFP release hereby relinquishing some of its gains to close the week at the 132.000 level. In this video, we looked at the current structure from a technical standpoint and identified the 132.000 level as a platform to look out for trading opportunities in the coming week(s).
