USD/JPY consolidates above 109.60
FXStreet (Córdoba) - Greenback remained steady against the yen during the last hours, consolidating daily gains, as it traded around 109.70. USD/JPY was rising for the third day in a row and headed toward the highest monthly close since 2007.

USD/JPY technical outlook
Ahead of the Wall Street closing bell, the 1-hour chart shows indicators losing upward potential, with moving averages heading higher below current price, notes Valeria Bednarik, Chief Analyst at FXStreet.
“In the 4 hours chart higher highs support the ongoing bias, despite indicators also turned lower in positive territory: dips down to 108.90 will remain as buying opportunities, at least until Friday’s US NFP readings”, said Bednarik.
