DAILY MARKET OUTLOOK on Major USD/JPY
Update Time: 24 Aug 2016 09:14 GMT
USD/JPY - 100.27
Despite dollar's initial gap-up open and rise to 100.93 on Monday, subsequent retreat suggests further choppy trading inside recent range of 99.54-101.17 would continue with mild downside bias and marginal weakness is likely to be seen. However, support at 99.65 would remain intact and yield rebound later.
On the upside, only above 100.93 would revive bullishness for gain towards 101.17, break there would indicate aforesaid upmove from 99.54 has resumed and extend towards 101.46/50.
