Offered tone around Yen gathered pace in Asia on dovish comments from BOJ’s Kuroda over the weekend.
Yen longs being unwound at the start of the week after Kuroda said there is still room for further cut in the interest rates.
USD/JPY opened with a nearly 60 pip gap up, slipped to hit lows of 100.28 and is then recovering to extend gains.
Dragonfly Doji formation seen in the Asian session till now, intraday bias higher.
The pair finds major resistance by 10-DMA at 100.90, break above could see test of 20-DMA at 101.81.
Strong trendline support lies at 99.60, weakness only on break below. Test of 98.78 (June 24 low) then likely.
Recommendation: Go long on break above 100.90, SL: 100.30, TP: 101.28/ 101.80
