USD/JPY Weekly Price Forecast – US dollar rallies against Japanese yen
The US dollar rallied a bit during the week, breaking above the top of the previous week which of course is a very bullish sign. However, I think there is plenty of resistance just above just waiting to get involved, showing signs of exhaustion will attract a lot of attention.

GBP/JPY Price Forecast – British pound pulls back
The British pound initially tried to rally again during the day on Friday, but then rolled over as we have gotten a bit ahead of ourselves. That being said, I think there is support underneath as well so the question is whether or not it is going to be and exhaustion play, or is it just simply pulling back to find more momentum underneath.

Technical Outlook For USD/JPY, EUR/JPY, AUD/JPY & CAD/JPY: 17.01.2019
USDJPY’s pullback from 109.10-20 is less likely to signal the pair’s weakness unless a sustained drop beneath three-week-old upward slanting trend-line, at 108.40 now, takes place on the four-hour chart. If the pair slip under the 108.40, the 107.70, the 107.00 and the 106.70 support-levels may gain sellers’ attention. Meanwhile, clear break of 109.20 enables the pair to aim for the 109.50 and the 110.00 resistances. In case prices manage to extend its up-moves past-110.00, the 110.25-30 seems crucial to watch as it holds the gate for the pair’s rally to 110. ...

The British pound continues to grind back and forth against the Japanese yen, and after the House of Commons voted against the Brexit plan that Teresa May had come up with.
