USD/JPY Analysis
I was not very convinced that this bullishness here had much further to run, but as we now seem to be breaking above 124.25 I am more strongly convinced that the JPY could be as weak as we have seen the CAD and NZD to be lately against the USD.
If the New York open holds above 124.25, this will be a bullish sign that we are probably going to continue onto 125.00 in the near future.
There is nothing due today regarding the JPY or the USD. It is a public holiday in Japan today..
