Short USDJPY – is it too obvious?

- USDJPY seems to be caught in a pretty clear range on 4h and 1h charts
- resistance zone is between 118.60 and 118.90
- support zone is between 117.25 and 117.40

The daily chart has lower highs and price is mostly below 20EMA (on 1d chart), so I would prefer to short in that range, close but not reverse the position near support and in case price falls below 117.25 wait for a pullback to reshort again
_______________________________
I place a limit short order at 118.55, Risk-Reward = 2.87
SL@ 118.95 (-40), TP@ 117.40 (+150)
