USD/JPY - 109.12
The greenback’s selloff yesterday and intra-day break of last week’s fresh 4-month trough at 110.20 signals erratic decline from November’s peak at 114.74 has once again resumed and consolidation with downside bias would be seen for weakness towards 109.50/55.
However, oversold condition would keep price above 108.90/00 and yield a much-needed correction later this week.
On the upside, only above 111.22 would indicate a temporary low has been made and risk stronger retracement to 111.40/50 before prospect of another retreat later.

USD/JPY - 108.81
Although dollar has recovered after last Friday’s fall to a fresh 4-month trough at 108.29 and minor consolidation would be seen for 1-2 days, as said move signals medium-term decline has resumed, downside bias is retained for one more fall. Below 108.29 would extend marginally but oversold condition would keep price above 107.70/80 and yield a much-needed correction later this week.
On the upside, only above 109.77 would indicate a temporary low has been made and risk stronger retracement towards 110.05/10 before prospect of retreat.

USD/JPY - 108.72
Although dlr’s daily wild swings following early rebound from last Friday’s fresh 4-month bottom at 108.29 would continue until FOMC rate decision, as long as 109.21 holds, early decline from 114.74 (November) would head to 107.90/00 after consolidation, loss of momentum would keep price above 107.55/60.
A daily close above 109.21 signals temp. low is made and may risk stronger retracement to 109.58, then 109.77 before prospect of retreat later this week.
The FOMC will end its 2-day policy meeting later today and market will scrutinise on the language of the Fed statements to see whether they carry more hawkish tone or not.

USD/JPY - 109.48
The greenback’s rally to 109.45 yesterday in post-FOMC trading due partly to a hawkish FOMC statement and then intra-day rise above this resistance to 109.64 suggests recent decline has made a temporary low at last Friday’s fresh 4-month trough at 108.29 and choppy trading with upside bias would be seen for a stronger retracement to 109.90.
But near term loss of momentum would keep price below 110.20 and yield retreat.
On the downside, only below 108.60 would indicate aforesaid correction has ended instead and risk re-test of 108.29, break would extend towards 107.90/00.
