@laurent, wanted to get your views again given USDJPY broke (albeit intraday) triangle to the downside, and a break below the Daily MA 100. Looks like it might look to test the low 82 levels as support. Timing / Volume maybe an issue this week ....

USDJPY : potential ascending triangle
Short-term Analysis : After a steep rally from 80.30 to 84.40, the pair is in a sideways consolidation that is slowly taking the shape of an ascending triangle. A bullish continuation pattern. Key level remains at 84.50 and only a breakout to the upside would be a clear bullish signal for a further advance. What I like very much about this chart is the impulsive advance that took place on dec.14th & 15th and the corrective 5-day consolidation ending up today with a variation of a dragon-fly doji. That doji is also confirming a potential up trendline. I remain bullish overall about USDJPY and there is a technical possibility that the advance is going to start very soon and go as high as 86.50.

What's the play with USDJPY? While USD is going higher against a number of majors while USDJPY goes below 84 again .... What's the USDJPY most correlated to these days? Earlier this year (and most of last), it was correlated to risk-trade and even the equity market, even in December/Jan period during thin volume.

EURJPY - Bearish rising wedge at Resistance
Short-Term Analysis - EURJPY traded latterally for almost three months and finally broke down to 108.35 . The Euro Bulls pushed it back right at support now turned Resistance but stopped then their rally. The upward march took the shape of a corrective rising wedge. Today, the ascending trendline was decisively violated and the bears took apparently control.
