Japanese Yen: Sideways trade within tight band – UOB
UOB’s Quek Ser Leang reports that USD/JPY was little changed around 160.30, with recent price action offering no fresh directional clues. The bank expects intraday consolidation between 159.90 and 160.50, while the 1–3 week outlook remains for range trading between 159.40 and 160.70, even as longer-term charts still allow for a test of 161.15.
Dollar-Yen stuck in consolidation range
"Yesterday, we indicated that USD “could trade between 159.70 and 160.35.” USD subsequently traded within a slightly higher range of 159.72/160.39, closing little changed at 160.32 (+0.07%)."
"The price action provides no fresh clues. Today, USD could trade between 159.90 and 160.50."
