USD/JPY Open 99.51 High 99.77 Low 99.17 Close 99.45

On Wednesday, the USD/JPYntraded within 60 pip range. The currency couple depreciated from 98.47 to 99.55 yesterday, not matching the positive money flow sentiment at nearly +16%, closing the day at 99.45. This morning, the Dollar is trading quietly against the Yen, with movements at the lower end of yesterday's range for now.

On the 1 hour chart the upward channel is still on hold, while on the 3 hour chart the upward channel has slowed down. A break above yesterday's top and nearest resistance of 99.77 would encourage further recovery of the Dollar. Immediate support is today's bottom at 99.17; a consistent break below could strengthen the yen further down towards the next target of 98.28.
Data due today: Japan Nationwide and Tokyo area CPI, both at 23:30 GMT.

Technical resistance levels: 99.77 100.66 101.45
