Watching EURJPY and GBPJPY closely to see if they can follow suit. I am still skeptical of the dollar's ability to drive a pair that is heavily influenced by its carry trade affiliations.
Of all the analysts, you have the short and perhaps medium term direction right. However, it is quite likely that we will get a 7-day reaction on the dollar/yen, on the 7th and 8th, pulling the price back to 108. I would wait as long as until 11th to 13th next week for a cyclical low to buy from. But we have to trade what we see and not what we think. Indicators remain high at this time of writing.
