USD/JPY - 104.32.. Dlr moved sideways initially in Asia on Mon n despite a brief dip to 103.72 at European open, price rose in NY morning after upbeat US data, dlr later climbed to session high of 104.32, then 104.38 in Asia today.

On the bigger picture, despite dollar's resumption of downtrend fm 2015 near 13-year peak of 125.86 to a 2-1/2 year low at to 99.00 in Jun, subsequent broad sideways move inside a 4-month long broad range of 99.00-107.49 suggests choppy swings inside this range would continue. Having said that, dlr's rally to 104.64 in mid-Oct suggests consolidation with upside bias remains due to expect- ed broad-based usd's strength n gain to 105.16, then twd 105.97 (being 70.7% r n 80.9% r respect. of 107.49-99.54) would be seen, current rising daily indicators add credence to this view but abv 107.49 needed to retain bullishness for furth- er gain to 108/109 in Nov. A daily close below 102.81 would risk 101.40/50.

Today, dlr's anticipated gain to 104.20 on Mon has retained our weekly bullish stance n buying the pair again on dips for further gain twd 105.11/16 is seen after consolidation, however, as hourly indicators would display 'bearish divergences' reckon 105.16 would hold. Only below 103.72 risks 103.52, 103.34.
