FxWirePro: USD/JPY pauses decline, downside risk remains

  • USD/JPY declined on Friday as a surging euro pushed the dollar to its weakest since June 2016,while obstacles to U.S. President Donald Trump's policy agenda also weighed.
     
  • Trading volume was light in the absence of major U.S. economic data and some caution ahead of the Federal Reserve's two-day policy meeting that will begin on Tuesday.
     
  • The dollar index touched 93.952, its lowest level since June of last year, and was last down 0.3 percent at 94.032.
     
  • Further upside for this pair is expected to be limited as strong resistance level at 112.72 is set to limit upside and bring decline towards lower levels.
     
  • To the upside, immediate resistance can be seen at 111.81, a break above this level would take the pair towards next resistance level at 112.40.
     
  • To the downside immediate support can be seen at 110.97, a break below this level will open the gates towards next level at 110.38.
