Yesterday, we saw the USD/JPY fall sharply following poor US data in inflation, retail sales, and manufacturing. Today, we had better US data, and it helped the USD/JPY stabilized after yesterday's dip.

A break above 106.50 should clear a price bottom and suggest a bullish outlook at least in the short-term. Whether it will revive the larger uptrend will remain to be seen. It should be noted that price is stalling at the previous 2014-high of 105.44 made early in the year. This level was broken by September and is now being tested again as support. If price does not push back above 106.50, there is still downside risk to the 105.00 handle, then another common resistance earlier in the year around 104. However, as the daily RSI tags 40 and stalls, we should anticipate a bullish continuation attempt.USD/JPY Daily Chart 10/16(click to enlarge)
