  • Upside finds stiff resistance at 120.80 (converged 100-DMA, 50-DMA and cloud base).
     
  • We would any signs of reversal only on close above.
     
  • Technical studies remain highly bearish, we see scope for further downside.
     
  • The Article 50 trigger is expected to drive the sentiment in the day ahead, which will have a significant impact on the yen markets.
     
  • Treasury yields edge higher, UST 10yr yields moved higher and rallied off 2.36% to 2.42%.
