USDJPY short opportunity...ish?

Price conveyed a strong downtrend, then it created a pennant, which is a continuation pattern.
And if you look at a greater picture, you'd see that price created lower lows, and it was far from reaching the previous high.

SL is crucial for this trade. Since it's a pre-market trade, the pips spread can widen at the start of the trading week. USDJPY's spread is currently sitting at 10 pips, which is why I moved my SL 10 pips further than intended.

As for the TP, then I first copied and pasted the vertical line that showed the height of the previous downtrend, matched it with the recent reversal pattern, and there goes my TP.

The lowest low that the price made recently kind of matches my TP zone.
Price hasn't tested any levels near that low yet, I think this is a potential Area of Liquidity.
So the market can be very tempted to reach that level, I'd be fine if it is my TP.

It's nighttime guys, I'll go to bed in just a sec, so bye!
