1/14/2008 – USD/JPY – Benefiting from investors’ risk aversion, both
the U.S. dollar and the Japanese yen have seen substantial gains within
the past several days. When compared head-to-head, though, the yen has
fared significantly better, as shown on the accompanying USD/JPY daily
chart. After having broken out above a key downtrend resistance
trendline in the very beginning of the year, price action hit a swing
high to 94.60 last week before plummeting towards the recent 13-year
lows in the pair (around 87.15). These lows have not yet been retested,
but price has been quickly approaching them. In the meantime, the pair
has pulled back to the above-mentioned downtrend line that it broke in
the beginning of the year. At this point, a substantial break back
below this trendline appears to be a very likely possibility. This
should be the case even though price is technically well oversold. If a
strong break occurs, immediate downside support should be in the region
of the long-term lows around 87.00, while upside resistance in the
event of a corrective bounce resides around the key 91.00
support/resistance region.
