USD/JPY is extending gains above the 111 handle, remains capped at 5-DMA at 111.35.
Yen largely ignores BOJ’s Summary of Opinions' for the June 15th and 16th meeting, which suggested that the Japanese economy has been turning toward a moderate expansion.
Technical indicators are inconclusive, but remain within a positive territory.
The major seems to have been capped between 100 and 200 day MAs. Breakout of range trade will decide further direction.
Strong support seen at 200-DMA at 110.70, break below will raise scope for downside. Confirmation on Stochs rollover and RSI below 50 will add to downside bias.
Focus this week on US Markit preliminary June PMIs and May New Home Sales for further impetus.
