Daily Pivots: (S1) 112.16; (P) 112.45; (R1) 112.87; More….
Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains neutral for the moment. With 111.98 intact, we’d favor another rise in the pair. Above 112.87 minor resistance will turn bias to the upside for 113.74. Break will target 114.73 key resistance. However, firm break of 111.98 support will extend the decline from 114.73 with another fall, possibly to 61.8% retracement of 107.31 to 114.73 at 110.14 before completion.
In the bigger picture, we’re holding on to the view that correction from 118.65 is completed at 107.31. And medium term rise from 98.97 (2016 low) is going to resume soon. Sustained break of 114.73 should affirm our view and send USD/JPY through 118.65. However, break of 107.31 will dampen this view and extend the medium term fall back to 98.97 low.
