USD/JPY - 123.66

Although dollar's rebound from 123.12 on Monday and then rally briefly to 123.81 on Tuesday following comments from BoJ's governor Kuroda suggests further choppy trading above last Wednesday's 2-week trough at 122.47 would continue and with mild upside bias, break of 124.19 (reaction high from 122.47) needed to signal decline from June's near 13-year peak at 125.86 is still being retraced and extend gain towards 124.57/62.

Below 123.12 would indicate aforesaid correction is over instead and bring re-test of 122.47, break would extend weakness towards 121.90/00 later.

EUR/USD - 1.1355

Despite euro's brief sell off to 1.1206 following the release of Fed's unchanged rate decision, renewed broad-based weakness in the greenback lifted price from there.

Euro later rallied to 1.1358 due to dovish remarks from Fed's Chair Yellen, suggesting a re-test of last Wednesday's 3-week peak at 1.1387 would be seen and break would yield resumption of up move from May's bottom at 1.0819 towards the key resistance at 1.1467 (May's 3-month peak) later.

On the downside, only a daily close below 1.1300 would indicate further choppy trading inside 1.1387-1.1151 broad range would continue and may yield another fall towards 1.1204-06.

USD/JPY - 123.30... Although dlr extended early intra-day rally from 123.36 (Asia) to as high as 124.46 after release of Fed's unchanged rate decision in NY afternoon on Wednesday, price swiftly tumbled to 123.60 and then to session low of 123.10 due to dovish remarks by Fed chair Yellen at the post-FOMC press conference before stabilising.

Later, dlr climbed to 123.60 ahead of Asian open on Thursday and then retreated to 123.19 in part due to cross-buying in yen vs other major ccys.

Although dlr's renewed weakness in Asian morning suggests consolidation with mild downside bias would be seen ahead of European open and selling dlr on intra-day recovery is recommended, sharp fall below 123.10 is not likely to be seen as short-covering may emerge ahead of the release of important U.S. inflation reports in NY morning.

Street forecast is for monthly CPI to increase to 0.5% in May from 0.1% in previous month, whilst core CPI to drop slightly to 0.2% from previous reading of 0.3%.

In addition, investors should pay attention to the latest weekly jobless claims, U.S. leading index n Philly Fed Business Index.

At present, offers are reported at 123.40-50 n then 123.65/70 with mixture of offers and stops at 123.90-00.

On the downside, bids are noted at 123.10-00 and more below with a mixture of more buying interest and stops near 122.70-80.

USD/JPY - 122.95... Despite a brief sell off to 122.48 in NY morning after release of softer-than-expected U.S. inflation data, short-covering lifted price.

USD/JPY - 123.00... Although dlr briefly climbed from Asian low at 122.83 to 123.22 ahead of European open after release of unchanged BoJ's monetary policy, active cross-buying in yen, especially vs euro, knocked price down in European morning n price retreated below 123.00 level again to 122.93 before moving sideways.

As investors have showed muted reaction to the 'no surprise' press conference from BoJ's governor Kuroda, further choppy sideways trading around 123.00 level is likely to be seen ahead of NY open.

Having said that, market participants should pay attention to yen's intra-day swing vs other major ccys as fund flow should dominate the market in subdued European trading.

At present, cross-related bids are touted at 122.80-122.70 and then 122.55/50 with buying interest from various accounts located at 122.30-10 region, whilst offers are reported at 123.40-50 with stops building above 123.60.
