USD/JPY analysis

Usd/Jpy has recovered from the bearish gap after Italy's ''no'' referendum vote, the pair is back to around 113.80 level. I'm expecting short term consolidation between 113.80 to 114.84.
 
I tentatively opened a long position due to the inverted hammer bar on the daily time frame above the support at 113.00. However, the pair has also formed double top at 114.80 so whether it will break above that level is uncertain at the moment.

The bullish trend on the USDJPY is still on, even though at the moment the pair is consolidating around the 114.00 level. A breakout of the 114.80 level is possible.
 
The pair is consolidating sideways. I think that if it breaks out below 114.00 it will drop towards 113.20 again.
 
The pair recorded moderate growth on Tuesday in a second consecutive positive session. The US dollar climbed by 17 pips to 113.98, having traded within the extreme values ​​114.18 and 113.49. USD/JPY continues to move over the rising moving averages, keeping positive attitudes, as RSI remains in neutral territory. A break of 112.90 will however change the short-term sentiment.
 
Key levels to watch for:
Support: 112.90; 111.45; 109.75;
Resistance: 114.80; 115.90; 117.20.

A break of 114.80 will resume the upward direction.

The pair upward momentum remains strong, but I'm expecting some correction movement until Wednesday Fed's interest rate decision.
 
USD/JPY is trading flat in preparation for the FED interest rate decision. In my opinion, the news will cause a drop, but whether that will happen will become clear in a few hours.

The pair probably will continue its consolidation movement as long as support level 117.00 still holds.
 
The pair rebounded from 116.54 after forming a spinning top bar on the 30M time frame. I think the move to the upside will continue towards the previous high at 118.65.
