USD/JPY analysis

The pair is stuck in a tight range, I think if it breaks out above 117.75 it will reach 118.00 - 118.10.
 
USD/JPY erased positions yesterday, which devalued the dollar by 29 pips to 117.54. Trading took place within the extreme values at 118.06 and 117.10. The price continues to consolidate above the low averages and RSI retreated moderately. The current range implies a likely bullish continuation, but a breakthrough of 116.15 will contribute to negative attitudes.
 
The US dollar was down against the Japanese Yen on Friday. By the end of the American session USD/JPY is trading at 117.34, shedding 0.18%. I believe that the support is now located at around 116.52, Monday's low, and resistance is likely at the level of 118.28 - the maximum of Tuesday.
 
The pair is moving towards 117.00 psychological resistance level, sideway trading might be expected within the range between 117.80 to 117.10 next week.
 
The pair is consolidating above 117.00 and I think it will continue trading flat until the end of the year.
 
USD/JPY moved to the downside after a false breakout above the triangle pattern that was forming on the 4H time frame. I think next target is 116.00.
