USD/JPY Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 106.54; (P) 106.98; (R1) 107.34; More...

Intraday bias in USD/JPY remains neutral and outlook is unchanged. On the upside, break of 108.04 resistance will suggest completion of correction from 111.71. Intraday bias will be turned back to the upside for 109.38 resistance and above. On the downside, break of 106.35 will target 100% projection of 111.71 to 106.91 from 109.38 at 104.58. Reactions from there could reveal whether fall from 111.71 is corrective or impulsive.

In the bigger picture, at this point, whole decline from 118.65 (Dec 2016) continues to display a corrective look, with well channeling. There is no clear sign of completion yet. Break of 101.18 will target 98.97 (2016 low). Meanwhile, sustained break of 112.22 should confirm completion of the decline and turn outlook bullish for 118.65 and above.
