DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK on Major
Update Time: 19 Jan 2018 09:30 GMT
USD/JPY - 110.69
Despite the greenback's strong rebound from Wednesday's fresh 4-month trough at 110.20 to 111.48 yesterday, subsequent retreat suggests the first leg of correction has ended and choppy trading with downside bias would be seen for weakness to 110.30/40, below would confirm this view and yield re-test of aforesaid support. However, loss of momentum would prevent steep fall below there and yield rebound later.
On the upside, only above 111.48 would revive bullishness for a stronger retracement of medium term decline towards 111.69/70, then 111.88/90 early next week.
