GOLD VS YEN - JPY 107.00 SUSTAINED - TRADE IDEA

YEN is also in deep waters for the current state for Covid 19 in Japan, but it USD that is lifting the Yen as investors bet against the USD. The dollar posted its first leg up against the yen in dramatic fashion, with a key reversal from JPY104 on July 31. Follow-through buying lifted it to nearly JPY106.50 at the start of last week. There were a few days on consolidation, and the next leg up appears to have begun before the weekend. We suspect it can rise into the JPY107.00-JPY107.50. The 200-day moving average lies a little above the JPY108, around the upper end of its previous range. The Slow Stochastic turned higher at the end of July. The MACD is also edging higher.
