USD/JPY seems to have formed a symmetrical triangle after a strong sell-off during the third week of August. The pattern implies resistance at 121 and support at 119.40. However, considering that we are closing in on the apex (Oct 4), there is an increased possibility of a breakout in the nearest future. Taking into account direction of the market before the triangle emerged and signals provided by the technical indicators, it is the support trend-line that is going to breached. If this is the case, the first target will be the Sep 4 low at 118.62, followed by the monthly S1 level at 116.45. However, the sentiment of the market is bullish, as 59% of open positions are currently long.
