Daily Forex Analysis – August 3, 2011

USDJPY Analysis.
USDJPY formed a cycle bottom at 76.29 on 4-hour chart. Range trading between 76.29 and 78.02 would likely be seen in a couple of days. As long as 78.02 resistance holds, the price action in the range is treated as consolidation of downtrend from 81.47, and another fall towards 75.00 is still possible after consolidation. However, a break above 78.02 will indicate that the bearish movement from 81.47 has completed at 76.29 already, then the following upward move could bring price back to 82.00-83.00 area.
