What can we expect from USDJPY today?

USDJPY on Monday dropped -0.31% to 149.14. Price is below 9-Day EMA while Stochastic is falling.

Updated daily direction for USDJPY looks bearish as the pair posted lower in Monday trading session.

Looking ahead for the day, immediate support level is at 148.68 (S1) with break below could see further selling pressure towards 148.21 (S2). To the upside, with the current momentum bearish, we prefer to look at breakout of the recent daily high of 149.85 as a potential indicator of buying interest. Failure to break the resistance level would continue to echo bearish sentiment. A close below 148.80 would indicate selling pressure.
