USD/JPY has been following a bearish movement on the last few days.

However, as we can see on 4-hour time frame chart, the price is forming a chart pattern (head and shoulder) which can bring a more downside movements in this pair.

On daily time frame chart, we can see that there is a chart pattern (Head and shoulders) which the price has already broken the neckline.

However, it may be interesting to trade when the price starts to correct its movement.

Therefore, our suggestion is to wait for the retest of that neckline in order to enter long in this pair.
