We prefer to short USD/JPY

Positioning Bias:

USD/JPY on Friday also made a high of 119.75 after release of US NFP data and has retreated from that level. Overall trend is bearish as long as resistance 120 holds.

On the downside 117.90 (23.6% retracement of 105.18 and 121.85) will be acting as major support and any break below will take the pair to 117.04/116.80 in short term.

The break of 120 on the higher side will target 120.70/121.65.
