USD/JPY Technical Analysis: Cycling near 111.00 on indecisiveness

  • The Dollar-Yen pair has been trapped near the 111.00 major handle recently, unable to develop momentum in either direction for the past two weeks.
  • Bears’ failure to break the 110.00 technical barrier could see bulls make a continuation higher.
  •  The Greenback could be heading for further gains heading into 2018 as a perceived Dollar shortage pushes the USD upwards and trade tensions remain close at hand.
