- Prev Close: 104.05
- % chg. over the last day: -0.12%
On Monday, the pair failed to hold on to its regained positions, and the price closed just below its opening. Market concerns took a piece of the action, and defensive assets were in demand. However, this didn’t affect USD/JPY that much. Price changes are minimal. Stochastic moves quickly from oversold to overbought levels and back. The MACD is neutral. Everything points to continuing trading in a narrow range.
- Support levels: 103.83, 103.68
- Resistance levels: 104.74
The main trading scenario for the pair – trading in a sideways range. Due to the rapid change in the market sentiment to negative, a decrease to the support level 103.68 in the first place and another rebound to the current levels is possible.
An alternative scenario assumes consolidation above the level of 104.20 and the resumption of growth to 104.74.
