[ANNOUNCE] The South African Rand has been depreciating against the Japanese Yen since the beginning of February when the rate tried to surpass strong resistance formed by the Fibonacci 50.00% retracement at 8.22. [/ANNOUNCE] 

Given that the currency pair is being pressured by the 55-, 100– and 200-hour SMAs, it is likely that downside momentum prevails in the market within following sessions. Most likely, the rate targets the lower boundary of the long-term ascending channel located circa 7.50.  

If given channel holds, it is expected that a reversal north occurs. Otherwise, the rate breaches the channel south and continues to decline towards the psychological level at 7.40.
