Technical analysis
The dollar against the yen succeeded in achieving our first expected target at 106.44 and settling around it, where he made an attempt to break it without being able to stabilize without him until now, noting that SMA 50 constitutes a negative pressure against the price, waiting for the price to be stimulated to break the mentioned level and confirm the descending wave extension To reach 105.20 as next stop.
Consequently, we continue to favor the bearish trend for the upcoming period, noting that failure to achieve the required break will lead the price to start recovery attempts targeting mainly the 107.68 level.
The expected trading range for today is between 105.60 support and 107.10 resistance
