“With no new impetus from the BOJ on Wednesday (markets are still looking for the potential for another easing down the road), the time path for the pair may have to rely on USD-specific developments in the interim.”
“In the current environment therefore, USD-JPY may attempt to hold above 120.00 with next key support expected towards the 55-day MA (119.45).”
