The USDJPY pair remains intraday bullish while trading above the 106.77 level, and currently retains a high correlation with U.S and Japanese equity markets.
The USDJPY pair remains intraday bullish while trading above the 106.77 level, further upside towards the 107.49 and 108.00 levels appears possible.
