JPY outlook: Crosses starting to look bid again
- EUR/JPY broke through technical resistance at 131.20 and looks like a buy-dips proposition for a re-test of 134.00.
- GBP/JPY looks likely to test technical resistance levels near 154.20.
- USD/JPY is unlikely to scream higher in a straight line but should find support near 99.50 for a 101.50 re-test.
The lack of Fed tapering should keep risk sentiment quite strong which is bullish for the Yen crosses but also mildly bearish for the USD. I’d expect more range trading for USD/JPY and look to the crosses for the trends.
Hi Sean
How are you doing. Gone for 2 weeks and seems like ages. Been following the jpy crosses and although the eurjpy looked like a potential h&s it didnt work out. Primarily this can be due to the election in the upper house where abe is expected to further consolidate this power.all these rhetorics can be buy the rumours sell the fact later.i lost a little as my stop loss triggered. Cest la vie!
In 2nd thought, if abe takes the upper house we can see jpy dropping further. Any dips would be attractive.
You picked a good time to go away Danny, it’s been pretty horrible trying to pick a trend or even picking the swings
