  • Bearish Scenario: If it fails and dips below support at 99.00, focus turns to 97.70 next.

Technical Outlook:

  • Bullish Scenario: Staying above 1.1380 supports a run toward 1.1484 and 1.1666.

USD/JPY

The yen strengthened slightly after Japanese data showed a more modest contraction than expected, while U.S. data pushed the dollar higher  . As of Monday, USD/JPY was around 144.45.

Technical Outlook:
