USD/JPY strategic bias

According to the Technical Analyst Team at ICN.com, “The trading session opening was above USD/JPY key resistance level of the downside move and around 38.2% correction at 98.60. We cannot count on the breach that occurred, as the bullish price gap needs confirmation. Therefore, we prefer to remain neutral in our weekly report. Trading below 98.05 brings back negativity, while breaching 99.00 might trigger a new bullish wave.”
