USD/JPY daily chart's review

On the daily candle chart, the rate remains consistent with the channel up pattern, which has guided the rate since the middle of April. In the case of the channel holding and the rate surging in its borders, a potential target would be the 2020 high zone near the 112.00 level.

Meanwhile, it can be spotted that the pair respects round exchange rate levels. The 110.50 has served as support. The 111.00 level has provided both support and resistance.
