USD / JPY Technical Forex Analysis for Forex Traders

Let’s leave the daily & weekly charts we have been obsessed with lately, and just focus on the hourly chart. We can see that there is a very exciting trend line, dropping from June 4th top. This line is almost at 86.21: the resistance which the price tried to break on Friday, but left it alone shortly after that. Therefore, all of our attention is at the exciting trend lien & the importance it provides. As long as we are trading below this line, the downtrend will be ok, but if we break the resistance 86.21 we will shoot up targeting 87.00 and may be 87.70. Where if we go back to trade below the support 85.00, there will be nothing stopping the price from reaching our awaited target 83.85, and may be at a later time we will see 82.65 as well.
