USD/JPY – EUR/JPY – CAD/JPY

USDJPY we wrote: rockets as the US dollar breaks higher across the board to hit108.00. Further gains look likely in the bull trend despite overbought conditions aswe look for 108.20/25 & 108.80/95.

We reached 108.63 then dipped to 108.08. No sell signal yet despite severelyoverbought conditions but we do meet 4 year & 200 week moving average resistanceat 109.00/10. A high for the week is likely. I would definitely exit all longs.

EURJPY mostly sideways this week but we are in a 9 month bull trend so we remainbuyers on weakness. Minor support at 128.90/80 certainly holding.

CADJPY longs at support at 8495/85 worked perfectly. We bottomed exactly here &shot higher to 8563.
