Last weekend, the U.S. dollar saw a seesaw movement against the yen. The USD/JPY pair began to decline ahead of the Bank of Japan’s Monetary Policy Meeting.It fell as low as 147.205. However, the dollar subsequently recovered during U.S. trading hours, eventually rising to 148.286. On the 4-hour chart, the 200-period SMA is acting as a support level, causing prices to rebound, while on the daily chart, the pair is currently attempting to break above the 200-period SMA at the upper boundary of the range that has been in place since last month.
Among European currencies, the Swiss franc fell against the yen. The CHF/JPY pair dropped from 186.816 to 185.758.On the hourly chart, the price has moved from above the 20-period moving average (MA) to below it. On the 4-hour chart, the price has broken below the 20-period MA, which had previously served as support, and on the daily chart, the price is currently pulling back from its all-time high. We will need to watch for signs of whether the Swiss franc will continue to weaken against the yen at the start of the week.
