In our last analysis on USDJPY we warned bulls that a rejection at the upper triangle boundary would lead to a push lower and with increased chances of breaking the triangle pattern to the downside. Yesterday price got rejected at the upper triangle boundary and turned lower and broke below the lower boundary providing an added bearish signal.
