The USDJPY has been enjoying a smooth upward growth for the dollar. Recently the rhetoric from the Federal Reserve has been very dovish. Combined with the economic slowdown and falling wage growth in the US the pressure is building on the US dollar. Technically the rate of growth of the currency pair has increased before breaking this trendline and retesting it after a bounce off the 200 EMA. This is a classic break and retest pattern of a trend, and with the coming dollar weakness this pair looks to be promising along with the USDCAD.
