USD/JPY seen within 110.40/111.90
Friday’s rebound in USD/JPY from the 100-day SMA near 110.50 was against the backdrop of rising volume despite the down tick in open interest, leaving the door open for a continuation of the consolidative theme in the near term, likely between 110.40 and the vicinity of the 112.00 mark.
