The USDJPY will now look to the US Advance GDP report for further direction, before the FOMC rate decision and statement in the evening. The markets are expecting a reading of 1.6%, with the previous reading coming in at 2.0%. This gives a deviation of 0.4%, so we would expect a move in the USDJPY to the upside if the US Advance GDP comes in at 2.0% or higher. If the reading is 1.6% or lower, this would be USDJPY negative.

The range to beat extends from the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of 108.40 as the floor, and 109.36 (August 1 high and 61.8% retracement. as the ceiling (red line).Download our latest quarterly market outlook for our longer-term trade ideas.
