Intra-day Market Moving News and Views
18 Jan 2016 01:28GMT
USD/JPY - ........ Although the greenback fell sharply in NZ to as low as 116.58, failure to penetrate last Friday's low at 116.51 triggered short-covering and price rebounded strongly to 117.13 in Tokyo morning as BoJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda kept an upbeat view of the country's economy during his speech earlier.
Trading is going to be relatively thin today with U.S. markets closed for Martin Luther King's birthday holiday.
Some offers are seen at 117.20/30 and more above at 117.40/50 with stops building up above there whilst initial bids are noted at 116.60/70, suggesting choppy sideways trading would be seen.
