  • USDJPY moved to a high of 151.947 in the early US trading,. That got within two pips of its highest level going back to 1990 and the high price for last week.

The 100 hour moving average and 200 moving average at 151.49 and 151.44 remain as targets that would need to be broken on the downside to increase the bearish bias
