USD/JPY Mid-Day Outlook

Daily Pivots: (S1) 108.79; (P) 109.56; (R1) 110.34; More…

With 4 hours MACD crossed above signal line, intraday bias in USD/JPY is turned neutral first. With 110.80 resistance intact, further decline is still expected to 108.12 low first. Break will extend the whole corrective fall from 118.65 to 61.8% retracement of 98.97 to 118.65 at 106.48. We will look for bottoming sign there. However, break of 110.80 should indicate completion of fall from 114.36. In that case, intraday bias will turned back to the upside for 111.70. Break will target 114.36 key resistance.

In the bigger picture, price actions from 125.85 high are seen as a corrective pattern. It’s uncertain whether it’s completed yet. But in case of another fall, downside should be contained by 61.8% retracement of 75.56 to 125.85 at 94.77 to bring rebound. Overall, rise from 75.56 is still expected to resume later after the correction from 125.85 completes.
