USDJPY: Good support seen at 111.60/70
|Preferred Strategy: The dollar traded down to Friday’s lows, today reaching 111.64, before bouncing strongly on news that the supposedly hawkish John Taylor had a positive interview with Donald trump regarding the upcoming Fed Chair vacancy. Currently near session highs of 112.28, the short term momentum indicators now appear set to allow further dollar gains, where 112.75 would be the first real hurdle ahead of 113.00, and 113.43 (6 Oct high). Good support now seen at 111.60/70, and buying dips is preferred today. Further out, the dailies look less positive, so further range trade between 112.00/113.00 may be in store. Buy US$Jpy @ 111.85. SL @ 111.45, TP @ 112.75
