USDJPY - H4 Overbought Pullback

Updated
The USDJPY is looking overbought as it approaches 80 on RSI. As well, MACD histogram is turning negative and it looks like we are about to get a turn of the MACD back towards our Signal for a potential cross. As well, the gap up on the open this week looks like it desires to be filled.

We are SHORT at the top of the bullish channel looking for a retrace back towards the middle of channel. Anticipating this retrace, we will set out first target 113.320 which is previous resistance gone support now. Our next target will reside at the base of the bullish channel at 112.925. If this lower trend line is broken we will keep our position open to ride the trend down to our final target at 112.445.
