Key Quotes
“There are some dollar bullish divergences among the technical indicators we look at, and the dollar appears to have traced out a head and shoulders bottom pattern. The neckline is found around JPY107 and has a measuring objective near JPY110.”
“The dollar found support near JPY107 ahead of the weekend despite the pullback in US yields and drop US stocks. A move below JPY105.70 would negate the pattern, but a break of a trendline drawn off the March 28 low, which comes in near JPY106.35 on Monday and rises to JPY107.10 on April 13, would be an early warning sign.”
