Key Quotes

“USD/JPY’s correction lower probably ended along the 200 day ma at 111.76, a fall through which would leave the 55 day ma at 110.87 exposed. While above here it will remain well placed for a recovery from a slightly longer term perspective. Above the 113.44 current October high will trigger further gains to the top of the range at 114.38/49. It is where the May and July highs were made”.

“The 55 day ma guards the 109.55 midSeptember low and in turn this support guards the 108.81/13 April and June lows as well as the September low at 107.32”.
