What can we expect from USDJPY today?
USDJPY on Monday rose 0.25% to 147.13. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is rising.
Updated daily direction for USDJPY looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 146.42 (S1).
Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 147.45 or trades above daily pivot 146.93. While to the downside, the daily low of 146.22 and 146.42 (S1) as immediate support levels. USDJPY need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 147.45 would suggest bullish bias after recent positive movement.
For the week to-date, take note that USDJPY is mixed as compared to prior week.
