The Japanese Yen gained slight momentum against the USD after a tick up in the PMI numbers today. Earlier, the US dollar has managed to consolidate against the Japanese yen over the past two weeks. However, after the release of PMI data, the yen strengthened against the dollar, causing the exchange rate to decrease again. Based on analysis using the MACD indicator, there are two potential outcomes for this movement. One is that the pair will continue to fall, in which case short positions would be the best strategy for traders. The other possibility is that the pair may experience a reversal, with the dollar potentially becoming stronger against the yen in the near future. In this scenario, traders who are bullish on the pair may set a buy-stop at 131.35 and wait for the pair to continue in a bullish trend.
