A continuation of the USD surge against the Japanese Yen could encounter resistance in a round exchange rate level and initiate a consolidation by slightly declining or trading sideways. Take into account the weekly R3 simple pivot point's resistance at 136.34.

However, a decline of the pair is likely to look for support in the weekly R2 simple pivot point at 133.66 and the 133.00 mark.
