USDJPY trading plan:
U.S. initial jobless claims inched down to 184,000 from an upwardly-revised 186,000 the week before, but remained close to the 60-year low they posted at the start of the month. Initial claims have now been clearly below 200,000 a week for the last four weeks. Continuing claims, meanwhile, fell by more than expected to 1.417 million, from 1.475 million a week earlier. The interest rate on the 2-year Treasury notes, the maturity most sensitive to expectations about Fed policy, rose above 2.7% for the first time since December 2018. This is a positive signal for the dollar.
Investment idea: buy 127.79 and take profit 128.30.
