USD/JPY Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 109.47; (P) 109.92; (R1) 110.48; More…

USD/JPY’s rebound from 109.11 extends higher today. But still it’s limited well below 111.70 resistance. Thus, near term outlook stays bearish and deeper decline is expected. Below 109.11 will target 108.12 low first. Break will extend whole decline from 118.65 to 61.8% retracement of 98.97 to 118.65 at 106.48. As such decline is seen as a correction, we’ll looking for bottoming signal around 106.48. Meanwhile, break of 110.70 will suggest near term reversal and turn bias back to the upside for 114.36 resistance instead.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 125.85 high are seen as a corrective pattern. It’s uncertain whether it’s completed yet. But in case of another fall, downside should be contained by 61.8% retracement of 75.56 to 125.85 at 94.77 to bring rebound. Overall, rise from 75.56 is still expected to resume later after the correction from 125.85 completes.
