FxWirePro: USD/JPY maintains bullish bias with focus on 105.80 levels

  • USD/JPY rose on Thursday  as dollar rallied across the board after upbeat US economic data and on expectations that Federal Reserve was on track to raise interest rates in December.
     
  • U.S. economic data showed an upward revision in U.S. durable goods orders for August and stronger-than-expected U.S. pending home sales for September supported prevailing expectations for a December rate increase.
     
  • Further downside is expected to be limited as the pair finds strong support at 103.97 should limit further decline and bring rebound towards higher levels in the short term.
     
  • To the upside, the strong resistance can be seen at 105.34, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 106.00.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 104.58, a break below this level will open the door towards next level at 103.97.
