USD/JPY - Recovery from Last Week’s Plummet

Posted: 10 May 2010 09:33 AM PDT

Price action on USD/JPY, a daily chart of which is shown, dropped around 600 pips down to key 88.00 support on Thursday (5/06/2010) of last week, but quickly recovered a portion of its losses the very next day. Beginning the new trading week after last week's short-lived plummet, price action continues to recover much of last week's one-day losses. Although last week was characterized by a wild swing to the downside, the technicals could begin to re-emerge this week.
