<2/10 Tokyo USD/JPY outlook>(as of 8:20)
Today in Tokyo, we expect the same situation as yesterday, and it’s a matter of whether it will act as a wall at the “expected upper limit zone” 115.60=80 and fall, or end with small moves in the high range.
There are three possible scenarios.
(1)The “peak zone” 115.60=70 acts as a wall and it ends with sideways movement in the high range.
Assumed range: 115.40=70
(2)It will not become a solid upside breakout, ending with modest, half-hearted moves
Assumed range: 115.40=60
(3)The “peak zone” 115.60=70 is pursued firmly but becomes a wall and falls
Assumed range: 115.05=65
