As the greenback has continued moving higher after staging a strong rebound from 112.96 in part due to active cross-selling in yen, suggesting the retreat from 114.45 has ended at 112.96 and a retest of 114.45-50 strong resistance would be seen, however, break there is needed to retain bullishness and confirm early upmove has resumed for headway to 114.75-80 and later towards 115.00 but near term overbought condition should limit upside.
In view of this, we are looking to buy dollar on pullback as 113.35-40 should limit downside and bring another rise later. Below 113.20 would abort and suggest an intra-day top is formed, bring weakness towards said support at 112.96 which is likely to hold from here.
