- USD/JPY is currently trading at 120.36, with day’s high at 120.54 and low at 120.24
- Daily cloud base at 120.23 is seen at strong support, breaks below could take the pair to next support at 119.77 (daily Kijun)
- Resistance on the upside is located at 120.67 (cloud base) ahead of 120.77 (Oct 22 high) and then at 120.98 (Sept 17 high)
