USD/JPY - 109.62.. Dlr moves relatively narrowly in subdued Asian trading after staging a rebound on Tue from 109.15 (AUS) to 110.77 in Europe due to active cross-unwinding of recent short yen positions on slight easing of U.S.-China trade tensions.

Reuters reported in New York afternoon U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin will plan for another trade meeting in China at some point soon (see 22:05GMT update for details).

Looks like range trading will prevail in Asia, however, as the strong bounce from Mon's 3-month trough at 109.02 suggests recent downtrend has made a temp. low, consolidation with upside bias remains for a much-needed retracement to 109.90/00 later today.

Despite the decline from this week's high at 1.1265 (Monday) to 1.1178 yesterday, subsequent bounce to 1.1225 suggests euro is likely to 'gyrate' inside recent 1.1265-1.1135 broad range and near term upside remains for another rise towards upper indicated level later today.

EUR/USD - 1.1177.. The single currency is nursing loss in subdued Asian morning after hitting an 8-day low of 1.1167 in New York yesterday.

Despite staging a rebound to 1.1225 in European morning, failure to penetrate this Wed's high quickly triggered long liquidation n decline accelerated due to renewed Italy's budget deficit concerns, euro later tumbled to 1.1167 in New York afternoon as the greenback caught a bid after release of robust U.S. data n gain in U.S. stocks (DJI index closed up 0.84% at 25862).
Looks like consolidation with downside bias would be seen, as price is expected to remain confined inside recent 1.1265-1.1135 range, lower level would hold n may bring rebound later today if U.S. data miss forecast. In the meantime.

USD/JPY - 110.26.. Despite dlr's initial retreat from Asian 110.03 high to 109.50 at New York open on Friday, the greenback caught a bid after release of stronger-than-expected U.S. data (U.S. consumer confidence jumped to a 15-year high - May index came in at 102.4 vs forecast of 97.5) which triggered broad-based usd buying, price rallied to 110.18 before easing.

The pair opened at 110.12 in NZ n then climbed to intra-day high of 110.32 in Asian morning on renewed yen-selling and ignored further news on U.S.-China trade tensions (see early updates for details).
Although Friday's close above 110.00 confirms recent decline has made a temp. low at last Monday's 3-month trough at 109.02, overbought condition is likely to prevent further sharp gain n may yield strong retreat later today in European trading as the safe-haven yen may well get another round of buying on more negative U.S.-China trade talk news.
Offers are tipped at 110.40/50 with stops above 110.70.
Bids are noted at 110.00-109.90 with stops below 109.80 n more below 109.50.

Dlr climbed back to 110.21 in early Asian trading on Tuesday on renewed yen-selling triggered by present rise in U.S. yields, suggesting re-test of 110.32 is likely to be seen but loss of upward momentum should cap price at 110.50/60 today. '

Although euro's rebound from Tuesday's fresh 2-week low at 1.1142 suggests choppy trading above May's trough at 1.1135 would continue, above 1.1188 needed to signal recent decline from 1.1265 has made a low there n head back towards 1.1225.
