• Short USDJPY at 93.55
• Stop loss: 94.95
• Target: 87
• USDJPY has been forming a head and shoulders pattern over the past 5 - 6 months. Yesterday it closed back below the neckline at 94.12 and has also formed a short term evening star pattern as a result of the poor closes this week
• Also long end U.S. yields are likely to move lower from here, further supporting the move down in USDJPY
As a result - establish a short USDJPY position at 93.55 with a target of 87.00
