Falling channel: I noted price rallying within a falling channel in the last update. I also pointed out that since late January, corrections against the bearish channel have been between 90-100 pips. The latest pullback was about 150 pips. Alas, the pattern of under-100 pip retracement is broken.

Stop placement, target: A break below 93.00 could be a sign that this bullish outlook is not working, unless its a false breakdown. Otherwise, below 93.00 and these support factors, USD/JPY might actually be developing a more significant correction.
