USD/JPY rises
USD/JPY bounces off Monday's ¥153.72 low while targeting the ¥160 region. First, the November peak at ¥156.74 and the ¥158 region will need to be overcome.
Potential support is seen along the 55-day SMA and at last week's low at ¥154.96 to ¥154.78.
Below ¥153.72 meanders the 200-day SMA at ¥152.81.

AUD/USD keel over
AUD/USD's advance ran out of steam below the 55-day SMA at $0.6328 and is sliding back towards the $0.6200 region.
Were last week's high at $0.6330 to be overcome, however, a medium-term bullish trend reversal would likely be in the making.
