Updated daily direction for USDJPY looks bearish as the pair posted lower in Tuesday trading session.

Looking ahead for the day, immediate support level is at 131.1 (S1) with break below could see further selling pressure towards 130.48 (S2). To the upside, with the current momentum bearish, we prefer to look at breakout of the recent daily high of 133.17 as a potential indicator of buying interest. Failure to break the resistance level would continue to echo bearish sentiment. A close below 131.52 would indicate selling pressure.
