USD/JPY Moves Lower

USD/JPY has been trading to the downside this week with a new lower leg since this morning. The pair reached a high of 114.75 on November 6 and since then it's been going South. The lowest low was reached this morning at 112.65 and the pair seems to have not found any support.

Next level to the downside is seen at 111.66 which would create a double bottom and, if successful, the pair should jump start a new upward move to continue the medium term upside trend.

The Fed announced they are ready to move in December with one rate hike and they did announce it beforehand so that it wouldn't be a surprise to the market environment. This move is already registered by the market participants so no major fluctuations are expected to occur during the news release.
