The South African Rand has been appreciating against the Japanese Yen since the beginning of September after the pair reversed from the lower boundary of a medium-term channel at 7.12.
As apparent on the chart, the pair is trading near the upper channel line. From the theoretical point of view, a reversal could occur in the nearest future. Technical indicators for the 1D and 1W time-frames also support bearish scenario. Possible downside targets for the following sessions is the 55-period (4H) SMA at 7.39 and the weekly S1 at 7.29.
It is the unlikely case that some bullish pressure still prevails in the market, the currency pair should not exceed the resistance cluster formed by the Fibonacci 23.60% retracement and the weekly R1 near 7.70.
