“USD/JPY has recently eroded the 10 month downtrend. This has introduced scope towards the 200 day ma at 105.64. The 55 week ma lies at 106.43. We have for now neutralised our longer term view. In order to adopt a more positive stance longer term the market will need to regain the 55 week ma. Bear term we are positive.”
