Analysis and Recommendation:
The USD/JPY remains in a tight channel in the mid 79 price range, as risk aversion remains high and negative eco data from both countries weakens their value.
The US is still getting over negative jobs data released on Friday, as two Fed members said this weekend that they would support additional monetary stimulus.
In Japan, machinery orders collapsed last month, along with a slew of negative eco data from China. (See chart below)
This pair is expected to remain in this range.
