. USD/JPY - 113.78... Dlr spent a lack lustre day on Mon moving sideways. Despite initial marginal gain to 114.01 on gain in Asian stocks, price ratcheted lower on cross-buying in yen to 113.51 in Europe b4 moving narrowly in NY.
. Looking at the bigger picture, as indicated previously, dlr's 4-week long daily swings after resumption of MT fall fm 2015 near 13-year peak of 125.86 (Jun) to 110.99 in Feb suggest said decline has formed a temporary low there n the subsequent volatile price action is unfolding into a bearish 'triangle' with a-leg top at 114.88, b-leg trough at 111.04 n the rise to 114.56 marked the c-leg terminus. If this bearish scenario holds true, dlr's MT downtrend should resume in late Mar to psychological target at 110.00, then 109.52 (50% proj. of 121.70-110.99 measured fm 114.88). Only a break abv 114.88 would invalidate bearishness on dlr n risk stronger correction twd 115.97.
. Today, as price has edged higher after meeting renewed buying abv 113.51 sup in NY, intra-day upside bias is seen for gain to 114.20 but 114.45 should hold n yield decline later today or tom. Therefore, intra-day trader can buy dlr on dips whilst day trader should sell on upmove. Below 113.34, 112.90/00.
