USD/JPY: Chance to rise above 145.00 – UOB Group

Source Fxstreet

There is a chance for US Dollar (USD) to rise above 145.00 against Japanese Yen (JPY); the major resistance at 145.50 is unlikely to come under threat. In the longer run, USD is likely to trade in a range between 143.00 and 145.50, UOB Group's FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia note.

Major resistance at 145.50 is unlikely to come under threat

24-HOUR VIEW: "USD rebounded strongly last Friday. Yesterday, Monday, when USD was at 144.45, we indicated that 'the strong rebound has gathered momentum, and USD could potentially test 145.00 today.' We added, 'a rise above this level is not ruled out, but the major resistance at 145.50 is unlikely to come under threat.' We pointed out, 'support levels are at 144.00 and 143.50.' In the NY session, USD dipped to 143.63, rebounded sharply to 144.87, before ending the day at 144.72, up 0.44%. While there is no significant increase in upward momentum, there is a chance for USD to rise above 145.00 today. That said, the major resistance at 145.50 is still unlikely to come under threat. Today’s support levels are at 144.30 and 143.80."

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "Yesterday (16 Jun, spot at 144.45), we highlighted that USD 'is likely to trade in a range for now, probably between 143.00 and 145.50.' There is no change in our view. Looking ahead, the odds of USD breaking above 145.50 first appear to be higher than it breaking below 143.00."
