I&#8217;ve added a minor red descending pitchfork hoping that I&#8217;ll catch a potential downside momentum. You can see that USD\/JPY is going down along the upper median line (uml) of the minor descending pitchfork, a retest of this obstacle will announce a breakdown below the 38.2% retracement level. A valid breakout above the mentioned dynamic resistance will signal an increase towards the 23.6% retracement level and towards the median line of the ascending pitchfork. I&#8217;ve said in the previous reports that the major downside target will be at the lower median line (lml) of the ascending pitchfork.<\/p><div id=\"inves-850527931\" class=\"inves-in-content inves-entity-placement\"><hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads_header\">\r\n<p style=\"font-size:10px; float:left; color:#666;\">Free Reports:<\/p><\/div>\r\n<div id=\"inpost_ads\"> \r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/graph_techs_PD.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t     <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/1ApBOV\"><b><u>Get Our Free Metatrader 4 Indicators<\/u><\/b><\/a> - Put Our Free MetaTrader 4 Custom Indicators on your charts when you join our Weekly Newsletter<\/p><br><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:15px; float:left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/investmacro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/cot_pie_80.png\" align=\"left\" width=\"80\"  height=\"55\"\/><\/a>\r\n\t    <a href=\"https:\/\/goo.gl\/f3RrHX\"><b><u>Get our Weekly Commitment of Traders Reports<\/u><\/b><\/a> - See where the biggest traders (Hedge Funds and Commercial Hedgers) are positioned in the futures markets on a weekly basis.<\/p><br><br>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<hr style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd;\">\r\n<br><\/div>\n<p><strong>Brent Another False Breakout?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4016\" src=\"http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1.png\" alt=\"13brent\" width=\"1200\" height=\"627\" srcset=\"http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1.png 1200w, http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1-300x157.png 300w, http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1-768x401.png 768w, http:\/\/en.mexgroup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/13brent-1-1024x535.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 1362px) 62vw, 840px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Price rallied today and resumed the minor rebound.

We had two false breakouts above the ML, so the current drop is understandable. Is attracted by the confluence area formed between the 100% level with the third warning line (wl3).
