USD/JPY: Bias for USD is tilted to the upside – UOB Group

Upward momentum is beginning to build; US Dollar (USD) is likely to rise above 156.00 but is unlikely to reach 156.80. In the longer run, bias for USD is tilted to the upside; currently, any advance is likely part of a higher trading range of 154.30/157.20, UOB Group's FX analysts Quek Ser Leang and Peter Chia note.

USD/JPY fis likely to rise above 156.00

24-HOUR VIEW: "USD closed at 155.18 last Friday (+0.57%), but it rose sharply in early Asian trade today. Upward momentum is beginning to build, and USD is likely to rise above 156.00. The next major resistance at 156.80 is likely out of reach for now. On the downside, we expect any pullback to remain above 155.00 (minor support is at 155.40)."

1-3 WEEKS VIEW: "The pullback in USD to 153.70 in late January appears to have stabilized. While short-term upward momentum is building, it is premature to expect a sustained advance from here. That said, the bias is tilted to the upside, but at this time, we view any advance as part of a higher trading range of 154.30/157.20."
