Focus remains on the Dollar/Yen

USD
  • Despite the USD in the Red across the Majors, albeit flat against the Pound, with the latter gaining on speculation of a U turn from the UK Gov't.
  • The Dollar is still probing the Yen and its highest prints since 1990.
  • Market participants will be keeping a close eye at the 147.67 area, when the Dollar/Yen got hit and dropped 167 pips yesterday, with some, still unconfirmed speculation of a BoJ intervention?
  • Worth noting that yesterday's drop, was tiny compared to the last intervention on the 22nd September, when the USDJPY dropped 549 pips.
