USD: The Yen leads within G10 Currencies

Jul-01 06:27
  • Overall the Dollar is closer to flat against all G10s, besides the Yen of course, which is up 0.25% at typing, albeit off its best level.
  • As noted in the Bund comment, the US 10yr Yield had a brief test at the 4.20% level, helping the USDJPY back below 144.00, now some 20 pips off the low.
  • There isn't much in terms of support at current levels in the USDJPY, the next is seen further out, down to 142.80 Low Jun 13.

  • RES 3: $81.99 - 2.764 proj of the Apr 9 - 23 - May 5 price swing

Brent futures are unchanged. The contract traded sharply lower on Jun 23, and for now, maintains a softer tone. The move down has resulted in a breach of the 50-day EMA and note too that $66.17, the 61.8% retracement of the May 5 - Jun 23 bull leg, has been pierced. A continuation lower would expose $61.39 next, the May 30 low. Initial resistance to watch is $72.66, a Fibonacci retracement point.
