"It's kind of like a tug-of-war, so the current level around 104 might be the highest level today, and some market participants might try to sell the dollar against the yen ahead of the retail sales." 
- BBH (based on Reuters) 


Pair's Outlook 

As was anticipated, the Greenback lost some ground on Thursday, having slid back under the 104.00 mark. Nevertheless, the pair has been trading in a bullish trend for three weeks in a row now and technical indicators keep giving bullish signals, both suggesting that another bullish development is due. The Buck has the potential to establish a fresh 11-week high, which would also imply reaching the third resistance level, currently located just under the 115.00 major level. However, week US data today could spark more USD-selling, causing the bearish trend to prevail once again.  

Traders' Sentiment 

Bulls grew in number over the last 24 hours, as there are now 65% of all open positions being long (previously 57%). Meanwhile, the share of sell orders decreased from 57 to 53%.
