USD/JPY 1H Chart: Channel Up

Source: Dukascopy Bank SA
As the US Dollar traded in the large scale borders of a descending channel pattern against the Japanese Yen, a short term ascending channel was formed. The channel guided the rate on its final path to the upper trend line of the long term descending channel. Due to that factor the channel up pattern is set to be broken and the currency exchange rate is likely to retreat. However, the pair is set to face strong support levels, as it is simultaneously affected by the Fibonacci retracement levels, which are measured by connecting the 2016 low and 2015 high level, and a second set of retracement levels, which are measured via the 2017 low and high levels.
