USD/JPY Technical Analysis: 15-min chart shows a bull flag breakout

  • The bull flag breakout seen in the 15-minute chart yesterday indicates the bulls will likely capitalize on the pair's close above the all-important 200-day moving average hurdle.
  • Thus, USD/JPY could rise to 110.67 (resistance of trendline sloping downwards from the May 21 high and June 15 high).
  • However, the yield differential continues to drop in the USD-negative manner. So, sustainability of gains is under question.
