USDJPY 4-week Cycles - USDJPY June 23 (Chart 1)

USDJPYs 4-week cyclicals suggest renewed downside into month and quarter end amid medium-term USD weakness associated with Fed asset purchases and the defensive risk climate suggested by struggling equities. Note the last 3 major peaks and troughs in USDJPY occurred at 4-week intervals, which suggests that the next cycle low could take place by next week, calling up a a level near 92.50-93.00. While we could see modest gains in equities in the aftermath of todays FOMC statement, both equities and USDJPY suggest further downside ahead. USDJPY resistance capped at 95.90s, with interim downside target at 95.10, followed by 94.50. Current cyclical pattern suggests sub 94 and onto low 93s by mid next week.

raj, thats not a bad idea as a medium term trade based on risk aversion. The spike appeared too aggressive. And right now, yen weakness is the least troublesome trade.

jj, raj, that 94.38 low in USDJPY reminds us that the trend remains wekk down and 95.80, 96.20 will continue to hold.

Ashraf,
Last Friday was a real nightmare for me and my account :-( I loose near 12% of my account but I am unable to realize the reason behind the move in currencies and commodities. Ashraf, is there any chance that USDJPY touch 9620 level?And what is your view in US dollar Index?
Regards,
Rajib.
