4-hour chart :

The USD/JPY pair has broken resistance at the level of 103.73, which acts as support now. So, the pair has already formed minor support at 103.73. The strong support is seen at the level of 103.73 because it represents the weekly pivot.

The RSI and the moving average (100) are still pointing to the upside. Therefore, the market indicates a bullish opportunity at the level of 103.73.

Buy above the minor support of 103.73 with a target at 104.41 (high price).

The USD/JPY pair will continue to rise from the level of 104.41.

Also, the level of 104.41 is a good place to take profit because it will form a double top. Amid the previous events, the pair is still in an uptrend; for that we expect the USD/JPY pair to climb from 104.41 to 104.80 today.

The support is found at the level of 103.52, which represents the 50% Fibonacci retracement level in the H4 time frame.

On the other hand, if the pair closes below the minor support (103.52), the price will fall into the bearish market in order to go further towards the strong support at 102.62.
