In yesterday's U.S. currency trading, the U.S. dollar strengthened against the yen. The USD/JPY pair rebounded from 150.846 to 151.939, moving above the 20-period moving average on the hourly chart. However, on the 4-hour chart, the RSI remains at a low level around 37, and during today's Asian session, the dollar has weakened, falling below the 150 yen mark. We will need to monitor the direction of this trend to see if the dollar continues to weaken and decline against the yen.
European currencies saw the euro rebound against the yen after preliminary data released yesterday showed Germany’s November consumer price index rose to 2.2% year-on-year, up from 2.0% the previous month.The euro/yen pair rose slightly from 159.431 to 160.332. Price action was seen crossing the 20-period moving average on the hourly chart. However, since the downtrend along the -2σ Bollinger Band continues on the daily chart, caution is warranted regarding price movements during European trading hours.
