Today’s Analysis
USD/JPY hits 109.70/80 as we look for 110.10/20, 110.70/80 and perhaps as far as 111.50/60 this week.
Strong support at 109.40/20 but below here bulls have lost their chance to remain in control which risks a slide to 108.90/80 and 108.70/60.
EUR/JPY rockets from strong support at 128.40/20 to the target of 129.20/30. Watch strong resistance at 129.35/45 today to see if a head & shoulders pattern forms. A break above 129.65 however opens the door to 130.00/20.
Holding strong resistance at 129.35/45 can target 129.20/10 and minor support at 128.90/80. A low for the day possible but a bounce from here may not be very strong. Further losses can retest sell signal 128.40/20.
CAD/JPY bounces back to 8715/30. Further gains look likely to 8765/75, perhaps as far as a retest of important resistance at 8790/8810 where we watch for a negative double top.
Minor support at 8690/8680 could hold the downside in the morning. A break below 8660 however risks a retest of best support for the week at 8610/8590. A break below 8580 however risks a slide to 8550/40 & 8510/00.
