The structure of the rally from 95.72 is evidence that the larger trend remains down.  The advance consists of overlapping waves and can be counted as a double zigzag (W-X-Y); which is two 3 wave segments connected by an X wave.



The USDJPY is at a support line right now and coming under there as well as 103.20 would strongly suggest that a wave 4 top is finally in place.  On very short term charts, the drop from 105.70 is taking an impulsive form.  A bearish bias is warranted against 105.70.

STRATEGY: Bearish, against 105.70, target TBD
