USD/JPY: Downside alleviated on a breakout of 132.00 – UOB – by pabspiovano USDJPY Currencies Majors Banks
while below the 132.00 mark, according to Economist Lee Sue Ann and Markets Strategist Quek Ser Leang at UOB.24-hour view: “We highlighted yesterday that USD ‘is likely to edge lower to 130.60, possibly testing the support at 130.20’. While USD weakened as expected, it did not test the support at 130.20 . Downward momentum has waned with the rebound and USD is unlikely to weaken further. Today, USD is more likely to trade in a range, expected to be between 130.70 and 131.75.
Next 1-3 weeks: “We have expected USD to weaken since the middle of last week. After USD dropped to 129.67 and rebounded strongly, in our latest update from Monday , we indicated “Further USD weakness is not ruled out but USD has to break and stay below 129.60 before further decline is likely”. Since then, USD has not been able to make much headway on the downside. Downward momentum is waning rapidly and the risk of USD bottoming is increasing. However, only a break of 132.
