Recap of previous trading day (August 12)
Yesterday the USDJPY began rising in the Tokyo session, hitting a high of 148.22 shortly after GMT 13:30. It subsequently sold off to close at 147.18.
Temporary though the recovery to the 148-yen range was, it does suggest that the price could continue to rise as it adjusts to the earlier major sell-off.
