Pair's Outlook
The American Dollar managed to erase all intraday losses against the Japanese Yen yesterday and even climb over the 114.00 mark, thus, breaking its seven-week bearish trend. The US Dollar now has the potential to post more gains and reach the 115.00 major level, but a surge beyond this level could be difficult to achieve, as the 55-day SMA, the weekly R2 and the upper Bollinger band form a strong resistance area around 115.15. Technical indicators in the daily timeframe also suggest the Buck could post losses today. Setbacks are now expected until the USD/JPY pair reaches the 21-month bearish trend-line near 118.00.
Traders' Sentiment
Bulls are barely outnumbering the bears, taking up 51% of the market (previously 55%). The share of buy orders increased from 56 to 58%.
