USDJPYAn aggressive shift towards USDJPY-selling and a break of critical resistance leaves us looking for further strength.

Trade Implications – JPY Pairs: Our Senior Strategist writes that ¥102.75 represented a critical test for the USDJPY, and the break higher leaves us focused on a run towards multi-year and YTD highs at ¥105.43. It’s admittedly risky to buy the US Dollar as it drops to fresh lows versus the Euro and other key counterparts. Yet a surge in the highly-correlated SP 500 and Nikkei 225 suggests the USDJPY has further room to run. One of our sentiment-based trading strategies has gone long the Dollar from ¥102.36.
