USD/JPY Fundamental Analysis March 6, 2012, Forecast

Analysis and Recommendation: (close of Asian session)

USD/JPY opened the week trading at 81.77 and dropped a bit to end the trading day close to 81.61. The pair are expected to maintain this range with little economic data due in the US and Japan on Monday, there is little to move the pair. The only reaction will most likely be in response to the EUR/USD or USD weakness. The duo should open pretty close to where they are at present. On Tuesday there is also very little news, but Wednesday will bring several economic reports in Japan as well as employment reports in the US
