USD/JPY: Unlikely to reach the major support at 151.00 – UOB Group
US Dollar (USD) is likely to edge lower vs Japanese Yen (USD), but it is unlikely to reach the major support at 151.00. In the longer run, upward momentum has largely faded; USD is likely to trade in a 151.00/155.00 range for the time being, UOB Group’s FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia note.
Upward momentum has largely faded
24-HOUR VIEW: "We indicated last Friday that 'the outlook is unclear after the sharp swings.' We expected USD to trade in a choppy manner between 152.00 and 154.00.' USD then traded in a 152.01/153.15 range, closing lower by 0.33% at 152.33. There has been a tentative buildup in downward momentum. Today, USD is likely to edge lower, but it is unlikely to reach the major support at 151.00 (there is another support level at 151.60. Resistance is at 152.50; a breach of 152.85 would indicate that the buildup in momentum has faded."
1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "There is not much to add to our update from last Friday (14 Feb, spot at 152.70). As noted, the recent 'upward momentum has largely faded.' For the time being, USD 'is likely to trade in a 151.00/155.00 range'."
