Despite tough winter conditions, February non-farm payrolls rose 295K and unemployment ticked down to 5.5%, a level touted by some officials as a "normal unemployment level". Average hourly earnings slightly disappointed, but that didn't stop the Dollar from gaining 100-150 pips across the board.

USD/JPY broke the New Year high near 120.75 then 121 level and traded up to 121.27. It stopped just ahead of weekly resistance 3 and is now in retreat. 120.75 should now act as support, as should broken daily resistance 2 at 120.80.
