Pair's Outlook
As expected, USD/JPY failed to slump yesterday. Moreover, the pair rallied and met the weekly R1, before settling at a two-week high of 119.41. According to the technical studies, the Greenback is likely to experience losses on the four-hour time frame; however, by the end of today's trading session an additional surge is expected. The Buck might encounter resistance around 119.50, unless the US data to be released today are better than expected.
