From the 129.65 zone, the USD/JPY began a respectable comeback wave against the Japanese Yen. To enter a bullish zone, USD/JPY traded above the 130.50 and 131.20 levels.
On the 4-hour chart, the pair broke over a significant bearish trend line with resistance located close to 131.20. The pair even traded close to the 100 simple moving average and tested the resistance at 132.80.
The 133.20 level serves as the first significant resistance. The 200 simple moving average and the 133.50 zone are the next major resistance levels. It is very close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the decline from the swing high of 137.91 to the low of 129.63.

On the downside, a strong support area is located close to 131.80. The 130.50 support may be approached if the next significant support, near the 131.20 level, is broken.
