The decline in the dollar yesterday further reinforced the impression that the USD / JPY was heading lower.

Prices are oversold on an intraday basis, but any rebound may give higher on time and new sales opportunities. Level 109.20.20 and then 109.60 yen are areas of possible resistance. A further decline towards ¥ 108.40 and then ¥ 108.00.

Overall, the usual price is: Down.

The projected upper limit is: 110.26.

The projected lower limit is: 107.40.

The projected closing price is: 108.83.

the USD / JPY pair is finally out of the European session consolidation phase, bulls now seem to be continuing the positive momentum further above 109.00 post-NFP.

After spending the initial part of the defensive day, the US Dollar increased after the latest US monthly employment report showed that the US economy added 304 thousand new jobs in January compared with 165 thousand expected.

The NFP headline report did give a slight boost to the Greenback, although the reaction turned out to be short-lived as the previous month's reading was revised sharply down to show 222,000 additional jobs compared to 312 previously reported.

In addition, disappointment increased as the unemployment rate unexpectedly rose higher to 4.0% and average weekly income growth also fell below market expectations, at 0.1% month / month, despite remaining stable at level 3, 2% year / year.

Meanwhile, a cautious mood prevails, as illustrated by weaker trade sentiment around the equity market, supporting the safe-haven demand for the relative Japanese Yen and further collaborating to limit any significant gains.

USD/JPY extends intraday rejection slide from 110.00 handles, falls to the fresh session low

 A global risk-aversion trade underpins JPY and prompts fresh selling.
 A modest USD retracement from 2-week tops adds to the intraday fall.
 Speeches by FOMC members will now be looked upon for some impetus.


The USD/JPY pair faded an early European session spike to levels just above the 110.00 handle and dropped to a fresh session low, around the 109.60 regions in the last hour.

The pair continued with its struggle to make it through the key psychological mark, with a fresh wave of global risk-aversion trade underpinning the Japanese Yen's safe-haven demand and creating bearish pressure on the major.

The risk-off mood, as depicted by a sea of red across equity markets, was further reinforced by sliding US Treasury bond yields, which prompted some US Dollar profit-taking near two-week tops and further collaborated to the pair's intraday slide.

Despite the pull-back, the pair remains well within a narrow trading range held since the beginning of this week and hence, it would be prudent to wait for a convincing breakthrough in either direction before positioning for the near-term trajectory.

Moving ahead, today's scheduled speech by influential FOMC members - Fed Governor Richard Clarida and Dallas Fed President Robert Kaplan will now be looked upon for some fresh impetus during the early North-American session.

USD/JPY looks for extra consolidation – UOB

 USD/JPY stays neutral for the time being and remains poised to extend the prevailing sideline theme, according to FX Strategists at UOB Group.
Key Quotes
24-hour view: “The quiet trading in USD yesterday offers no fresh clues. The consolidation phase appears incomplete and further range trading is expected, likely between 109.50 and 110.10”.
Next 1-3 weeks: “Despite the sharp decline in USD that hit 108.48 last Thursday (31 Jan), we indicated last Friday (01 Feb, spot at 108.90) that “we have doubts about the sustainability of JPY weakness and we prefer to wait for a NY closing below 108.60 before adopting a negative stance”. That said, the subsequent sharp recovery was not exactly expected (USD touched a 1-month high of 110.15 earlier this week). The recovery lacks momentum and is viewed as part of a broad consolidation phase. In other words, we have doubts now on the sustainability of the current USD strength. In our view, USD is more likely to trade sideways for now, likely within a relatively broad 109.00/110.30 range”.

JPY TOKYO [B/] - Japan said it continued to look at the risks that overshadow the global economic recovery. Prime Minister (PM) of Japan Shinzo Abe said, vigilance was applied in the direction of his government policy.

Signs of a slowdown in global demand and a recent sharp rise in the yen have obscured the outlook for the Japanese economy that is heavily dependent on exports. That prompted verbal warnings from policy makers in Tokyo about the adverse effects of volatility in market movements on growth.

The USD/JPY pair is fluctuating in a totally narrow range for the fourth straight hours of day roughly the subject of Friday and struggles to create a decisive change in either running. As of writing, the pair was nearly unchanged upon the day at 109.80.

Since the begin of the week, the JPY has been finding demand and staying resilient hostile to the dollar, which was clever to count together gains beside re all of its major rivals this week. With the major equity indexes in the U.S. sliding in the antique trade together amid fears of the U.S. - China trade battle lasting more than the March 1 deadline, the JPY kept its composure and didn't let the pair to profit traction.

USD/JPY Weekly Price Forecast  US dollar continues to levitate

The US dollar rallied a bit during the week, breaking above the 110 level, back giving consent to minister to a bit of the gain. At this mitigation, it appears that this level is crucial, and appropriately I think that we have choppiness ahead of us.

The US dollar initially tried to rally during the trading week and even broke above the 110 level at one mitigation. By operate so, we had shown definite resiliency, but we next have seen a lot of resistance at the depth of the nasty hammer that was part of the flash wreck. Because of this, and the fact that the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level sits just above, I think it is every single one likely that we continue to see a lot of hesitation in this place. Looking at the daily chart, you can see a lot of indecision and I think that's the biggest difficulty when this pair right now.

USD/JPY is showing limited objection in the Monday session. In the North American session, the pair is trading at 110.58, going on 0.11% on the subject of the hours of daylight. On the pardon stomach, Japanese Core Machinery Orders declined 0.1% in December, above the estimate of -1.1%. In December, the indicator was flat at 0.0%. In the U.S., banks are closed for a holiday and there are no U.S. activities.

The Japanese manufacturing sector continues to anxiety. Core Machinery Orders declined in December when then a flat 0.0% warfare in November. The slowdown of Chinas economy is chiefly to blame for a slip in Japans exports and manufacturing bustle. Japanese exports of car parts and electronics to China are particularly vulnerable to the slowdown in China. There was firm news last week, as Japan economy grew 0.3% in the fourth quarter, after incorporation less of 0.6% in the third quarter. Business and consumer spending augmented, helping economic progress. Exports rose 0.9% in Q4, the strongest gathering in a year. However, if the global trade conflict continues, Japanese summative could dramatically slip.

There are concerns roughly the strength of the U.S. economy, after soft consumer data in January. Retail sales and core retail sales showed intelligent contraction, and these numbers came upon the heels of soft inflation indicators. Inflation remains low, despite a mighty labor song. CPI showed no regulate in January and has failed to supplement a profit by now November. Core CPI has recorded weak gains of 0.2% for four successive months. On an annualized basis, CPI gained 1.6% in January, the weakest year-following more-year profit back mid-2017. The soft inflation numbers were an upshot of low simulation prices, which fell 3.1% in January as oil prices remain out cold pressure.

Meanwhile, the US Dollar outstretched its oblique price perform, which coupled taking into consideration disturbance ahead of the neighboring round of US-China trade talks underpinned the Japanese Yen's relative attach-port status and added collaborated towards keeping a lid upon any subsequent going on-have an effect on.

Moving ahead, there isn't any major make known-disturbing economic data due for an official pardon from the US and therefore, the USD price dynamics, along back the broader facilitate risk sentiment might continue to combat as a key determinant of the pair's progress upon Tuesday.
