The yen considerably strengthened against the US dollar (by more than 250 pips) over the past week. I’ll open transactions in the current trend’s direction. I plan to sell USD/JPY, if the price consolidates below the 113.85 local support level. The best level for taking profit is 113.25-113.00. I’m going to hold this transaction for a few days.

The technical picture on USD/JPY is ambiguous for me at the moment. I have identified the following key levels:
Support - 113.15
Resistance - 113.90
I’ll open orders after the breakout and retest of these levels.

If the price fixes above 113.90, I’ll buy USD/JPY to the 114.50 mark.
If the price goes through the 113.15 support, I’ll open short positions. Potential movement - to 112.50.
Potential entry points can be formed in a few days.
I'll check the news from the US fund today.

EUR/USD. The US dollar rose against major world currencies yesterday. Very important economic data from the US will be published today. The data on the GDP of the country will be announced at 13:30 (GMT).
