What can we expect from USDJPY today?
USDJPY on Wednesday rose 0.04% to 151.62. Price is above 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is rising.
Updated daily direction for USDJPY looks mixed as the pair is likely to consolidate above 151.39 (S1).
Looking ahead today, to see upside interest, we prefer to look at price breakout of last daily high of 151.95 or trades above daily pivot 151.67. While to the downside, the daily low of 151.44 and 151.39 (S1) as immediate support levels. USDJPY need to break on either side to indicate a short-term bias. A break above 151.95 would suggest bullish bias after recent positive movement.
For the week to-date, take note that USDJPY is mixed as compared to prior week.
