USD/JPY Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 112.53; (P) 112.73; (R1) 112.91;
Intraday bias stays neutral for consolidation above 112.23 temporary low. As long as 113.24 minor resistance holds, another fall is mildly in favor. On the downside, break of 112.23 will target 111.37 and possibly below. But still, price actions from 114.54 are seen as a consolidation pattern. Hence, even in case of deep decline, downside should be contained by 38.2% retracement of 104.62 to 114.54 at 110.75 to bring rebound. Larger rise from 104.62 is expected to resume later. On the upside, above 113.24 minor resistance will turn bias back to the upside for 114.03 resistance.
In the bigger picture, corrective fall from 118.65 (2016 high) should have completed with three waves down to 104.62. Decisive break of 114.73 resistance will likely resume whole rally from 98.97 (2016 low) to 100% projection of 98.97 to 118.65 from 104.62 at 124.30, which is reasonably close to 125.85 (2015 high). This will stay as the preferred case as long as 109.76 support holds. However, decisive break of 109.76 will dampen this bullish view and turns outlook mixed again.
USD/CAD Daily Outlook
Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.3251; (P) 1.3325; (R1) 1.3398;
Intraday bias in USD/CAD remains neutral for consolidation below 1.3444 temporary top. As long as 1.3160 minor support holds, further rally is still expected. On the upside, break of 1.3444 will turn bias back to the upside. Larger rally from 1.2061 should target 1.3685 fibonacci level next.
In the bigger picture, up trend from 1.2061 (2017 low) is still in progress and should target to 61.8% retracement of 1.4689 (2016 high) to 1.2061 at 1.3685. This will remain the preferred case as long as channel support (now at 1.2949) holds.
