The USD/JPY currency pair
- Prev Open: 113.21
- Prev Close: 112.87
- % chg. over the last day: -0.30%
At the moment there are no fundamental reasons for the USDJPY quotes to go down in the mid-term, as the Bank of Japan has kept its monetary policy soft until the end of the year, while the Fed is already cutting QE. Moreover, if the US consumer price index is high today, it will lead to a rise in the dollar index and USDJPY quotes.
- Support levels: 112.30, 111.53, 110.99, 110.65
- Resistance levels: 113.42, 114.48, 115.15
The global trend on the USD/JPY currency pair is bullish. But the local trend is strictly bearish at the moment. Under such market conditions, it’s better to look for buy positions from the buyers' initiative zone on the higher timeframes. Sell positions should be considered from the resistance levels, given there is sellers' initiative.
Alternative scenario: if the price falls below 112.30, the uptrend will likely be broken.

The USD/CAD currency pair
- Prev Open: 1.2441
- Prev Close: 1.2436
- % chg. over the last day: -0.04%
The Canadian dollar is a commodity currency, so the USD/CAD currency pair highly depend on the dynamics of the dollar index and oil prices. Both the dollar index and oil prices increased yesterday. As a result, the USD/CAD currency pair is trading flat. Fundamentally, the Canadian dollar is tending to strengthen now as oil prices are rising and the Canadian central bank has begun to cut its stimulus program. On the other hand, a rise in the dollar index may eliminate these factors.
- Support levels: 1.2428, 1.2352, 1.2306, 1.2260
- Resistance levels: 1.2518, 1.2565, 1.2628, 1.2729, 1.2774
From the technical point of view, the USD/CAD currency trend has changed to bullish. The price broke through the priority change level and consolidated above. The MACD indicator has become inactive, and there are no signs of reversal. Under such market conditions, it is better to look for buy trades from the support levels, given there is the buyers' initiative. Sell deals should be considered from the resistance levels of the higher time frame.
Alternative scenario: if the price breaks down through the 1.2351 support level and fixes below, the downtrend will likely resume.
