USD/JPY is expected to prevail its upside movement. The pair recorded a succession of higher tops and higher bottoms since April 25 and is holding on the upside. The rising 50-period moving average maintains the upside bias. The relative strength index is above its neutrality level at 50 and lacks downward momentum.

As long as 110.55 holds on the downside, look for a further advance toward 111.30 and even 111.60 in extension.

The pair is trading above its pivot point. It is likely to trade in a wider range as long as it remains above its pivot point. Therefore, long positions are recommended with the first target at 111.60 and the second one at 112.00. In the alternative scenario, short positions are recommended with the first target at 110.30 if the price moves below its pivot points. A break of this target may push the pair further downwards, and one may expect the second target at 109.95. The pivot point is at 110.65.

Resistance levels: 111.60, 112.00, and 112.45

Support levels: 110.30, 109.95, and 109.50
