USD/JPY remains trapped in a sideways trend for almost 2 months with only a 20 pip range yesterday.
EUR/JPY we wrote: holding above 129.50 is positive for this week with the break above last week’s high at 129.74/76 to target 129.90 and 130.20/30.
We hit targets as far as 130.55 as we look for 130.90/131.00. A nice profit on longs bought at the start of this week.
CAD/JPY shorts at 8720/30 stopped above 8750.
