MIG Bank: comments on USD/JPY

The pair USD/JPY found support in the 79.55 area bouncing up and coming closer to the resistance at 82.00 representing post G7 intervention maximum. Technical analysts at MIG Bank think that the greenback has to overcome this level to gain bullish momentum. The next resistance levels are found at 83.30 (post earthquake shock maximum) and 84.50 (December 16 maximum). If US currency manages to rise above the latter, the pair may resume potential long-term bull cycle.

The single currency went down below 1.4900 on May 5 renewing the week minimums below 1.4255/70 (55-day MA). Technical analysts at Commerzbank expect the pair EUR/USD to consolidate in the 1.4200 zone.

The specialists think that euro is poised for a decline to 1.4145/55 (38.2% retracement of 2011 advance and April 18 minimum). In their view, these levels will manage to constrain the initial attack of the bears.
