USDJPY Analysis: Sideways Movement Continues, Resistance and Support Levels
The USDJPY pair has attempted to break below the 149.52 support level but failed and has since moved sideways within a trading range between 149.52 and 150.88.
As long as the 149.52 support level holds, the sideways movement could be seen as consolidation for the uptrend from 145.89. A breakthrough of the 150.88 resistance level could trigger another rise towards the 151.90 resistance level.
On the other hand, a breakdown below the 149.52 support level would indicate that the upside move from 145.89 has already completed at 150.88. In this case, the pair would find support around the 147.50 area.
As noted previously, our friends at Gtwo3.com continue to maintain long positions in nearby Euro futures. A rally through 108.62 could lead to 110.97, or so.
Short for Eur/Jpy is 162.57 with a very, very tight stop. Aud/Jpy is same fashion. Not short Usd/Jpy due to USD strength overall. These are only small pip trades and only for the bored and agile, as well as being counter trades. Purely intra-day. The proper call has been to be long these pairs.
Preference this morning has been a long aud/jpy, long eur/jpy, long usd/jpy so far, but now countering out of boredom and seeing possible exhaustion even if only for small pips
In case anyone is completely bored and looking for an intra-day play I am short Eur/Jpy as a counter trade, a bit risky, move at your own comfort level. Usd is bid overall.
