Why It’s Trending?
USD/JPY has remained volatile due to new developments from both the US and Japan. The weak NFP report sparked a sell-off in the pair on September 5, but the currency pair has recovered following the resignation of Japanese Prime Minister Ishiba. US CPI is also due this week and could trigger more volatility for the pair. The 150 area is still a target for bulls, and a break below 146 may still be targeted by bears.
