USD/JPY - 110.15
Dollar’s rally yesterday after Fed’s hawkish hold and then break of previous June’s 110.33 high to 110.71, then 110.82 in Asia today suggests early correction from March’s 1-year 110.96 peak has ended at 107.49 in April, above extends uptrend from 2021 January’s 102.60 trough to 111.60/70 b4 prospect of correction.

On the downside, only a daily close below 110.33 may risk stronger retracement to 109.81/85.

T.G.I.F. n no U.S. eco. data is due out, so market will take cue from movement in U.S. yields n intra-day price swings in U.S. stocks as ‘volatility’ is expected on today so-called ‘quadruple witching’ day due to expiries of stock index futures, stock index options, stock options n lastly, single stock futures.

USD/JPY - 109.96
Despite dollar’s fall from last Thursday’s 10-week peak at 110.82 to 109.72 in Asia today, subsequent rebound in tandem with U.S. yields suggests the pullback has possibly ended and consolidation with upside bias remains for gain to 110.48, above would confirm this view and yield re-test of said resistance, however, loss of momentum may keep price below 2021 peak at 110.96 and yield retreat.

On the downside, only below 109.72 would revive bearishness for stronger retracement of recent upmove to 109.60 but 109.20 should hold.

USD/JPY - 110.74
Despite dollar’s initial marginal gain to a near 15-month high of 111.11 (Asia), subsequent retreat to 110.70 on cross unwinding in yen suggests medium-term uptrend has made a temporary top and range trading is seen ahead of U.S. PCE data, above 111.11 would extend marginal gain, however, loss of momentum should cap price below daily res at 111.71.

A daily close below 110.67 would risk stronger retracement towards 110.22 but this week’s low at 109.72 (Mon) should remain intact.

T.G.I.F., U.S. will release a raft of eco. data which which definitely cause intra-day price swings n in addition, we have a total of 4 Fed officials scheduled to speak in New York session, please refer to our EI page for details.

USD/JPY - 111.48
The greenback’s rise above June’s near 15-month peak at 111.11 on cross-selling in jpy to 111.65 in Asia today suggests Medium Term upmove has once again resumed and consolidation with upside bias remains for gain to 111.60/70, however, loss of momentum would keep price below 111.80/90 and yield a much-needed correction early next week.

On the downside, only below 110.75 would indicate a temporary top has been made and risk stronger retracement to 110.43 but 109.95/00 should remain intact.

On the upside, only above 111.40/50 would indicate said pullback has ended instead and risk re-test of 111.65, break would extend to 111.90/00 later.
