No surprises with USD/JPY – just another multi-year high
FXStreet (Moscow) - USD/JPY opened the day at 106.18, and kept drifting higher since that time; it refreshed 6-year high at 106.55 before retreating to 106.40 area.
How to attract bulls
The pair has shown an impressive rally recently. And although we already saw several the corrective retreats on the back of yen short covering, the potential to see new highs soon is still here, as the monetary policy gap between the BOJ and the Fed is broadening. The market understands it, and thus, every time the pair moves lower it may attract another herd of bulls wishing to enter the market at more attractive levels. The next target to the upside may lie at 106.76.
