USD/JPY Analysis
The downwards trend has reasserted itself but we are getting a new support level at 112.21 that is under severe pressure but, so far, it is holding.
It might be the case that the Bank of Japan is supporting the pair whenever it approaches the 112.00 level.
There is nothing due today concerning the JPY. Regarding the USD, there will be a release of Unemployment Claims at 3:30pm London time.
