USD/JPY Daily Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 108.66; (P) 108.81; (R1) 109.01; More…

Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains mildly up the upside. Sustained trading above 108.80 resistance will confirm short term bottoming at 106.78. Further rise should then been seen to 110.67 resistance next. However, on the downside, break of 108.28 minor support will turn bias back to the downside for 107.53 support and then 106.78 low.

In the bigger picture, decline from 118.65 (Dec 2016) is still in progress, with the pair staying inside long term falling channel. Break of 104.62 will target 100% projection of 118.65 to 104.62 from 114.54 at 100.51. For now, we’d expect strong support above 98.97 (2016 low) to contain downside to bring rebound. In any case, break of 112.40 is needed to the first serious sign of medium term bullishness. Otherwise, further decline will remain in favor in case of rebound.
