Based on present fundamentals and historic levels, EUR/JPY at 140 is too high in my opinion, as indeed is AUD/JPY at 110+, purely on basis of historic levels. On the other hand, from a very long term perspective, seeing USD/JPY back at 110/115 is not a stretch of the imagination at all.
In other words, I think at some stage very soon there will be excellent bearish trading opportunities in EUR/USD or AUD/USD: EUR/JPY at 130 and USD/JPY at 110 would mean EUR/USD back below 120; whilst AUD/JPY at 105 and USD/JPY at 110 would imply AUD/USD trading back near 95 cents. This is what I expect to happen over coming months.
My preferred way to play this strong USD trade is through USD/CHF and I’m hoping to get the timing right to build a long position for a move to 1.10.
