DOLLAR-YEN
DOLLAR-YEN: USD/JPY initially advanced 20 pips to the session highs of Y113.73,
but has halved its gains and last trades at ~Y113.6, with the yen modestly
underperforming its G10 peers as the Nikkei 225 added ~1.8%. 
- USD/JPY finished higher Weds as JPY failed to benefit from broader dollar
weakness, with U.S. stock indices lending the pair some support. 
- Bulls need a close above Y113.82 to regain control, targeting a break of
Y114.00, ahead of the Oct 4 high at Y114.55. A close below Y113.00 would shift
momentum back to the bears, opening the 21-DMA & broken trendline
resistance-turned-support at Y112.65/60.
