"I think the yen's retracing very rapid moves over the last couple of days. There's certainly pause for thought. But I think we're going to see some bias start to line up for dollar-yen reaching somewhat higher levels than we had seen in the past"- Barclays Plc (based on Bloomberg)Pair's OutlookUSD/JPY pair's surge during the last few days was stopped by the 81.12 level and currently the price edges lower, checking the monthly R1 level at 80.89 and, as rarely happens, the upper Bollinger line from above. If the price does not surge further in a few upcoming days, the pair will experience a divergence between the price and the RSI, what is a strong indicator of a position reverse.
