What can we expect from USDJPY today?

USDJPY on Wednesday dropped -0.22% to 133.44. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is falling.

Updated daily direction for USDJPY looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 132.98 (S1).

Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 133.94 or trades above daily pivot 133.46. While to the downside, the daily low of 133.00 and 132.98 (S1) as immediate support levels. USDJPY need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A close below 133.00 would indicate selling pressure.

For the week to-date, take note that USDJPY is bearish as the pair posted lower by -0.49%.
