Featured Technical Report

USD/JPY Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 101.60; (P) 101.72; (R1) 101.91; More...

Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains neutral as consolidation from 101.42 temporary low continues. We're holding on to the view that consolidation pattern from 100.75 has completed at 104.12 already. Thus, we'd expect recovery to be limited well below 103.01 resistance and bring fall resumption. Break of 101.32 will argue that whole decline from 105.41 is resuming and USD/JPY should fall through 100.75 support to 100% projection of 104.12 to 101.32 from 103.01 at 100.21 next.
