USD/JPY has bounced close to the key support area between 101.20 (03/03/2014 low) and 100.76 (see also the long-term rising channel). The break of the hourly resistance at 102.01 has validated a short-term base formation. Resistances are given by the declining trendline (around 102.64) and 103.02. An hourly support now lies at 101.85 (intraday low).

A long-term bullish bias is favoured as long as the key support 99.57 (19/11/2013 low) holds. Monitor the support area provided by the 200 day moving average (around 101.09) and the rising trendline from the 93.79 low (13/06/2013). A major resistance stands at 110.66 (15/08/2008 high).
