Tuesday, November 1, 2016 2:11 PM UTC
- USD/JPY declined in the US session as worries over the U.S. election increased demand for safe haven assets.
- The Japanese yen was favored on Tuesday as concerns over the outcome of the upcoming U.S. elections weighted on the dollar.
- However, further decline is set to be limited as the strong support at 103.93 is set to hold the bears from declining further below and bring rebound back to higher levels.
- Immediate support can be seen at 104.64, a break below this level will expose the pair to next support level at 104.33 levels.
- Major resistance can be seen at 105.53 a break above this level will open the door towards 106.10.
