USD/JPY - 92.82… Dlr continued its recent relentless uptrend last week, price rose for 12 consecutive weeks n upmove accelerated on Fri to a fresh 2-1/2 year top of 92.97 after a brief retreat to 91.79 in NY morning on profit taking.
Looking at the bigger picture, dlr’s MT uptrend fm 2011 record low at 75. 32 (Oct) remains in progress n is correcting at least the LT intermediate fall fm 124.14 (2007 high), a ‘minimum’ 38.2% r of this move wud push price to 93.97, abv wud yield further subsequent headway twd chart obj. at 94.99 (2010 peak), however, as daily technical indicators’ readings wud be in very o/bot territory, reckon 94.85, being 2-times extension of the MT rise fm 75.32-84.18 measured fm 77.13, wud cap upside n yield a much-needed correction later this month. On the downside, a daily below 91.79 (last Fri’s low) wud be the 1st signal temporary top is in place n risk retracement to 91.41 but sup at 90.33 shud remain intact.
