•  A break of 135.80 opens risk to the lower end of the 133 area. 

The US Dollar fell on Wednesday after Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said that the US central bank could scale back the pace of its interest rate hikes "as soon as December."

This has given the yen a boost and is seeing USD/JPY take on prior equal lows. A break here could make for a significant shift in the pair for the days ahead as the following illustrates:
