USDJPY – bulls hold grip for retest of pivotal Fibo barrier
USDJPY firmed further on Monday and partially offset warning from long upper shadow of Friday’s daily candle, as fresh strength looks for retest of pivotal Fibo resistance at 158.22 (76.4% of 160.19/151.85) which capped Friday’s rally.
Firm break here to open way towards targets at 160.00/19 (psychological / 2024 high, posted on Apr 29).
